10 fresh oyster
1/2 cup dry red wine
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
2 tablespoons butter
2 cups broth
salt and freshly ground black pepper

Season with salt and pepper, and lemon zest. Cook for 10 minutes. Add the whole cream and mix well. Pour over the oysters, and garnish with parsley leaves. Cool in the refrigerator and serve cool.
