Directions
Make a white sauce by melting butter and blending in flour. Saut a few minutes to remove the flour taste. Add chopped green onions and saut. Stir in stock or bouillon cube. Add enough milk to make a thick white sauce. Add chopped mushrooms, sherry or wine, salt and pepper to taste. Cook slowly until thick and smooth; about 15 minutes. Optional: cooked shrimp, chopped, may be added. Pan broil oysters a few minutes to remove water. Place several into baking dishes and cover with sauce. Top each with a sprinkling of bread crumbs, paprika and Parmesan cheese. Bake in a 350 degree oven about 15 minutes or until brown and bubbly.
