Angels on Horseback

Description
An interesting starter when you've got some oysters to spare. See also Devils on Horseback. Serves 6.

Ingredients

 * Oysters - 24 remove from shell,
 * Streaky bacon rashers - 12 rinded,
 * Toast - 12 small slices,
 * Butter - enough to butter the toast,
 * Watercress - 1 bunch.

Directions
1. Pre-heat oven to 200C / 400F / Gas 6.

2. Stretch bacon so it doesn't shrink when it's cooked. Use the back of a knife. Cut each rasher in half.

3. Wrap a piece of bacon round each oyster. Place on a baking sheet. Keep them packed up tight so that they don't unravel. Bake for about 8 minutes.

4. Butter the toast. Arrange 2 angels on each piece and garnish the dish with the watercress.
