Smoked Oyster Dip

 
My friend, Sheelagh, makes this fabulous dip.  The ingredients are easily bought in Lagos and she serves it with sliced French bread that has been toasted with garlic butter.  I love the fact that you taste as you go along to get the correct flavour, which usually results in me eating at least a quarter of the dip before the guests arrive!
 
 

Ingredients
 
1 tin smoked oysters
Cream
Mayonnaise
Tabasco Sauce
Spring onion
Salt and Pepper
 
Chop up about three small spring onions and place in a blender together with the smoked oysters (no need to drain them) and about a quarter cup of cream, a few spoonfuls of mayonnaise, and a few drops of Tabasco Sauce.  Add salt and pepper. 
 
Pulse until you have a smooth texture and taste as you go to get the correct flavour.
Sprinkle with cayenne pepper for colour.



When at home in Jozi, I like to serve it with cherry tomatoes and rice crackers.
Enjoy!
