Description

Delight in this vibrant and easy-to-make appetizer featuring natural oysters topped with a savory-sweet mixture of smoky Polish salami, fresh pineapple, chili, coriander, and lime juice. This refreshing twist on oysters offers a burst of flavors perfect for entertaining or a sophisticated snack.


Ingredients

Scale

Oysters

  • 2 dozen natural oysters (in their shell, ideally Sydney rocks)

Topping

  • 100 grams Oliving by Hans Polish salami (finely diced)
  • 80 grams pineapple (fresh, finely diced)
  • 1 chili (finely chopped)
  • 2 tablespoons coriander (finely chopped)
  • Juice of ½ a lime
  • Salt & pepper to season


Instructions

  1. Cook the Salami: Dry fry the Polish salami in a non-stick pan over medium heat until it becomes browned and slightly crisp. Remove it from the pan and place it on kitchen paper to cool slightly and drain excess fat.
  2. Prepare the Mixture: In a medium bowl, combine the cooked salami, finely diced pineapple, chopped chili, coriander, and lime juice. Mix thoroughly and season well with salt and pepper to taste.
  3. Assemble the Oysters: Lay the oysters in their shells evenly on a serving platter. Spoon a generous amount of the salami and pineapple mixture onto each oyster.
  4. Serve: Present the oysters immediately with extra lime wedges on the side for guests to add zest if desired. Enjoy chilled for best flavor.

Notes

  • The oyster topping can be prepared ahead and stored in the refrigerator until ready to serve.
  • Top oysters just before serving to maintain the freshness and texture.
  • This recipe offers a fabulous alternative to traditional Oysters Kilpatrick with its smokey, tangy, and spicy notes.
  • Perfect for entertaining and easy to make in large batches.
