2 dozen oysters (we used Pacific), shucked
200g slices streaky bacon, cut into matchsticks
1/4 cup (60ml) Worcestershire sauce
1/4 cup (60ml) Woolworths Tomato Sauce
2 1/2 tbs finely chopped flat-leaf parsley
1 tbs lemon juice
3 tsp hot sauce (optional), or to taste
1/2 tsp freshly ground black pepper
Lemon wedges, to serve
Rock salt, to serve

Method

1.

Place all ingredients in large bowl, season to taste and toss to combine.
2.

Preheat oven grill to high. Line one baking tray with a scrunched-up sheet of foil. Arrange oysters on foil, nestling them in so they’re flat and steady. Top oysters with 3 tsp measures of kilpatrick filling.
3.

Grill oysters for 6-8 minutes, until bacon is crisp.
4.

Scatter rock salt on a large platter and top with oysters. Serve immediately, with lemon wedges on the side.
