Oysters Sauteed in Cumin

This is one of those recipes in which the sum is much greater then the parts. Although it is simple to prepare, the combination of wine, cumin, and a touch of soy sauce results in a complex flavor. Serve this a la minute dish from its pan or skillet and accompany with French bread to catch the pan juices.

Ingredients

2 Tablespoons butter

8 mushrooms

2 garlic cloves, minced

16 oysters

1/2 cup dry white wine

1 teaspoon cumin

1/2 teaspoon soy sauce

In a skillet over medium-high heat, melt the butter and saute the mushrooms and garlic for 2 to 3 minutes. Add oysters and saute for 3 minutes. Add wine, cumin, and soy sauce and simmer 1 minute. Arrange on 4 small plates and serve.

Serves: 4
