Adding a little spice to oysters is rather a nice way to help them down, especially with a glass of sherry. However, I wouldn't interfere with the pureness of natives and recommend sticking to rock oysters for this recipe.
8 oysters, shucked
For the dressing 1 spring onion, finely chopped 1 small red chilli, seeded and finely chopped 3cm cucumber, halved, seeded and finely chopped with the skin on 1tbsp coriander, finely chopped The juice of 1 lime 1tbsp red wine vinegar
Combine all of the ingredients for the dressing and transfer to a small bowl for serving. You can either dress the oysters with the dressing or let your guests help themselves.
