Baked Oysters with Bleu Cheese
- Cook the potatoes in salted, boiling water until tender.
- Drain well, and mash (using a fork) together with the milk, olive oil, and parsley.
- Open the oysters, separate the bodies from the shell, keep the juice and set aside.
- Throw away the top shell, and wash the bottom shell thoroughly.
- Beat the egg yolks together with the wine, and put in a double boiler to cook until the mixture doubles in volume, continuing to beat during cooking.
- In another pan, mix together the cream and the Bleu cheese. Bring to a boil for 2 to 3 minutes, then remove from heat.
- Add the oyster juice, and fold this mixture gently into the egg yolks.
- To serve, fill the oyster shells with the mashed potatoes.
- Put the oysters on top, and cover with the sauce.
- Put them under the grill for 5 minute so that the mixture becomes golden brown.
- Serve hot.
