Canadian Oyster Soup
Not sure where the Canadian part comes from, but this is the second oyster recipe with carrot and celery. This sounds really good however, and easy!
Ingredients
- 4 cups small oysters, shucked and drained, non shell and drained weight
- 1 carrot, grated
- 1/2 cup celery, finely diced
- 1/4 cup butter, melted
- 4 cups milk
- salt and pepper, to taste
Instructions
- Melt butter in saucepan and add the celery and carrot. Cover and simmer over very low heat for 20 minutes, without browning the vegetables. Add milk to the pan and bring to a boil.
- Meanwhile, heat the oysters in pan over medium heat with a splash of olive oil until cooked through, about 5 minutes; do not boil.
- Pour the cooked oysters into the soup and heat through, season to taste and serve.
Notes
I buy oysters, small, shucked, for about 50 Baht per 350 grams, probably 700 grams would be 4 cups, that is 100 Baht, everything else is minor cost. This is about 75 cents per serving for 4 servings, less for 6.
