Magic and 3/4 cup of the oyster water. Cook over high heat for 3 minutes,
shaking pan (versus stirring) almost constantly. 3. Add the remaining

1 minute. Stir in the green onions. 4. Gradually add the cream, whisking

stirring well as you ladle out the portions. 5. For the main course,
ladle 9 oysters, a little of the vegetables and 1 cup of the liquid
into each serving bowl. For appetizer, serve 1/2 of that amount. Serves
