Erotic Oysters
Swap a red bulb into the side lamp – like a brothel sign it will say lots!

Music fills the mood and Donna Summer’s
‘Love to love you baby’ does it for Wanda, floating on erotic temptation in time with the music

Get on with it…
Erotic Oysters.
Take 8 fresh wild rock oysters, carefully open each retaining the wonderful juice in a bowl & remove the oyster flesh keeping the beautiful bottom shells. Dry the oysters on kitchen paper. Blitz up a small bowl of breadcrumbs seasoned with lime zest.
Make a silky, sexy mousse by blending 150g queen scallops (white part only), 100ml double cream, 1 egg white, ¼ tsp smoked paprika & season with salt & pepper.
Gently cook the oyster juice in a pan with a 5cm chunk of cucumber (do what you want with the rest) cut into julienne strips, 25ml Pernod & a splash of double cream.
Take each oyster and smother one side with the scallop mousse, dip this into the breadcrumbs & shallow fry gently breadcrumb side down in a little butter until golden.
Arrange the pearly oyster shells on a platter of fresh samphire & spoon in the cucumber sauce. Pop each oyster back in the shell, golden crumb side up & top with a little salmon caviar.
Then in the gentle glow of candle light feed each other and obviously catch the escaping juices however you wish … of the oysters.
Serve with a chilled dry Muscadet et sevre et maine from the banks of the Loire.

Erotic Oysters are probably our most well known aphrodisiac and have been top of the lusty food list since the time of the ancient Greeks. They are full of zinc which helps produce testosterone which boosts not only male but also libido too.
Legend tells that Casanova ate 50 raw oysters every morning with his lover of the moment – go for it…
Time to play truth or dare…
