Oysters are a prominent part of many Gulf Coast holiday meals, and they play a big role in New Orleans chef John Besh’s dinner. As a child, he loved when family friend Mrs. Slaughter made little puff pastry cups and filled them with oysters in cream sauce. In this version, he places the oysters in mini tartlet shells, then tops them with a creamy horseradish sauce and crispy bread crumbs.

Oyster Tartlets

First-rate.  Very well-received by guests at two dinners.

I twisted this just a bit and will share the changes I made.

smoked oysters

phyllo shells were spinach

+ 1/2 c. cream cheese to roux

+ 2 T. lemon juice

I didn't have enough shells so lined the remaining mini-muffin tins with warmed flour tortillas.......they were actually crisper than the phyllos.

Made a very nice presentation. My neighbors enjoy being my "Lab Rats"!
