Ingredients

• salt to taste
• 2 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
• 3 green onions, chopped
• 2 large Spanish onions, sliced
• 1 large ripe tomato, diced
• 1 large ripe tomato
• 4 (8 ounce) cans oysters
• 0.5 teaspoon garlic salt
• 0.5 cup olive oil
• 0.5 teaspoon soy sauce
• 0.75 cup fresh lemon juice
• 0.375 cup ketchup

Recipe Instructions

Step 1

Add sliced onions to a saucepan over medium heat and add just enough water to cover. Bring to a simmer and cook just enough to soften. Remove from heat and drain. Rinse with cold water and drain.

Step 2

Score tomato with an X, skin deep, on the top and bottom. Place in the same saucepan used for the onions and add enough water to cover. Bring to a simmer and cook until soft and the skin starts to peel, about 5 minutes. Remove tomato and rinse under cold water until cool enough to hold in your hand. Using your fingers or the blade of a knife, gently peel off the skin. Place peeled tomato in a blender and purée.

Step 3

Combine onions, lemon juice, and olive oil in a large glass dish or bowl. Stir in oysters, puréed tomato, diced tomato, green onions, ketchup, and soy sauce. Season with parsley, garlic salt, sugar, and salt to taste.

Step 4

Chill before serving.
