Ingredients:
24 oysters
12 rashers of streaky bacon
12 small slices of toast
butter for toast
1 small bunch of watercress
Method:
Stretch the bacon with the back of a knife then cut each rasher in half. Use these to wrap around the oysters (one half bacon rasher for each oyster). Place the bacon covered oysters on a baking tray (pack them tightly against one another so the bacon doesn't unravel — or pierce with a cocktail stick).
Place in an oven pre-heated to 200°C (400°F/Gas Mark 6) and bake for 8 minutes.
Butter the toast, place two of the Angels on Horseback on each and garnish with the watercress.
