OYSTERS MORNAY
I posted a recipe for Oysters Kilpatrick a while ago, so I thought I would post one for Mornay, I have to say kilpatrick are probably my favourite, but mornay are very good. I think it just depends on personal preference and tastes. I will post a recipe for 4 as a starter, when I make oysters I like to make half kilpatrick and half mornay. It was my sisters birthday on the weekend and this in one of the dishes I did, my sis has never eaten an oyster and always proclaimed yuk. Well we managed to convince her to try a mornay one, she loved it and so decided to also try the kilpatrick, she couldn't believe she had been missing out on something so good for so long.

Steps:
- Heat the oven to 375F.
- Place the oyster tins (or shells) on a baking sheet and place one oyster in each tin.
- Mix together the parmesan and Panko bread crumbs. Set aside.
- In a sauce pan over medium heat add the butter. When the butter is melted stir in the flour. Let the flour and butter cook for a minute or two and then slowly whisk in the warm milk. Just as the sauce thickens add the 1/4 cup white wine. Then stir in the pinch of nutmeg and shredded cheese. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
- Lightly salt and pepper the cooked spinach and place a little on each oyster. Then drizzle a tablespoon or two of Mornay sauce over the spinach and then top with the parmesan and Panko bread crumbs mixture.
- Place the baking sheet in the oven and bake until bubbly and the tops are golden brown. Often times the tops don't brown well enough for me, so I place the baking sheet under the broiler for a minute to get the color I like.
- Remove the oysters from the oven and give them a squeeze of lemon. Serve immediately with Tabasco.

Tips:
- Use fresh oysters. Fresh oysters have a briny, sweet flavor that is perfect for this dish. If you can't find fresh oysters, you can use frozen oysters, but be sure to thaw them completely before using.
- Be careful not to overcook the oysters. Oysters are delicate and can easily become tough if overcooked. Cook them just until they are opaque and tender, about 2-3 minutes per side.
- Use a good quality cheese. The cheese is one of the main ingredients in this dish, so it's important to use a good quality cheese that melts well. Gruyère, Parmesan, and Fontina are all good choices.
- Serve immediately. Oysters Mornay is best served immediately after it is made. The cheese sauce will start to thicken as it cools, so it's important to serve it while it's still hot and bubbly.
Conclusion:
Oysters Mornay is a classic French dish that is perfect for a special occasion. It's easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste. Whether you like your oysters Rockefeller or Casino, this dish is sure to please. So next time you're looking for a delicious and elegant seafood dish, give Oysters Mornay a try.
