Preparation

  1. Defrost the oysters for approx. 2 hours at room temperature.

  2. In a small saucepan, melt and fry the butter with the chopped shallots over medium heat until tender and translucent, about 3 to 5 minutes. Remove from the heat and stir in the basil, parsley, tarragon and lemon zest as well as the lemon juice.
  3. Preheat the oven to 220 °C. Place the opened oysters on a wire rack on a baking sheet. Place a tablespoon of the herb mixture on each oyster. Finally top with the diced tomatoes. Bake for about 8 minutes until just cooked through. The oysters will continue to cook a little due to the residual heat.

Tip: To serve, place the oysters on a layer of coarse sea salt. This not only makes them stay nice and stable, but it also looks very nice. The salt can then be reused for other dishes.
