Oyster Stew with Andouille Potato Mash image

When we have that awful bone-chilling weather down here, I crave this hearty oyster stew. The plump oysters are bursting with flavor and the andouille gives it a good tweak.

Provided by Emeril Lagasse

Yield Makes 8 to 12 servings

Number Of Ingredients 16

1 1/2 pounds Idaho potatoes, peeled and cubed
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 cup heavy cream
1/8 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
For the stew:
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
1/2 cup finely chopped yellow onion
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
2 teaspoons chopped garlic
1 cup heavy cream
24 freshly shucked oysters, with their liquor
1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley leaves
1/2 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
1/2 teaspoon hot sauce
For the potatoes:
6 ounces andouille or other smoked sausage, chopped

Steps:

  • Make the potatoes:
  • In a large skillet over medium-high heat, brown the sausage, stirring, about 6 minutes, then drain on paper towels. Set aside.
  • Put the potatoes in a large saucepan, add enough water to cover and 1/4 teaspoon of the salt, and bring to a boil. Reduce the heat to medium and simmer until fork-tender, about 12 minutes. Drain and return the potatoes to the saucepan over medium heat to dry for about 2 minutes. Mash the potatoes with a fork, add the andouille and cream, and stir to mix. Stir in the remaining 1/4 teaspoon salt and the black pepper. Keep hot over very low heat.
  • Make the stew: In a large skillet over medium heat, melt the butter. Add the onion, salt, and black pepper and cook, stirring for 3 minutes. Add the garlic and cream and simmer for 3 minutes. Add the oysters, and their liquor, the parsley, Worcestershire, and hot sauce and cook until the edges of the oysters curl, about 4 minutes.
  • To serve, spoon equal amounts of the mashed potatoes into small serving bowls and top each with a generous ladleful of the oyster stew. Pass on a tray.

Tips:

  • Choosing Fresh Oysters: Select oysters with tightly closed shells and avoid any with cracked or damaged shells. Fresh oysters should have a briny, oceanic aroma.
  • Shucking Oysters: Use an oyster knife or shucking knife to carefully pry open the oyster shells. Be cautious and protect your hand with a towel or glove.
  • Preparing Sausage: Remove the sausage from its casing and crumble it into small pieces. You can use spicy or mild sausage, depending on your preference.
  • Sautéing Sausage and Vegetables: Heat a skillet over medium heat and sauté the sausage until browned. Add chopped onions, bell peppers, and garlic, and cook until softened.
  • Creating the Sauce: Combine chicken or vegetable broth, white wine, and seasonings in a saucepan and bring to a simmer. Thicken the sauce with cornstarch or flour, if desired.
  • Combining Oysters and Sauce: Add the shucked oysters to the sauce and cook until the edges of the oysters curl and they are cooked through. Do not overcook, as this will make the oysters tough.
  • Serving Suggestions: Serve the oysters with the sausage and sauce over rice, pasta, or bread. You can also garnish with chopped parsley or green onions for added flavor.

Conclusion:

Oysters with sausage is a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed as a main course or appetizer.
