  • 12 oysters, freshly shucked

  2. Place the oysters on a serving plate and spoon the dressing on top. Sprinkle with the shiso leaves and serve with lime wedges. Serves 4

+ If you can’t find micro shiso leaves, you could use any micro or small herb leaf available from supermarkets or greengrocers.

Wine note: We have paired this recipe with Cloudy Bay Sauvignon Blanc 2019 which has subtle tropical notes, with hints of passionfruit backed by zesty citrus, orchard blossom and lime.
