Oyster Onion Fritters

Oyster Onion Fritters


1. Whisk egg until pale.

2. Stir in sifted flour/soda/cayenne. Add salt and pepper.

3. Whisk in enough oyster liquid to make what looks like a very thick pancake batter.

4. Add onions.

5. Gently stir in oysters.

6. Check consistency; if too thin batter will spread too much once in the pan.

7. Heat oil in pan over med-high heat. (the oil should be about 1/4 inch deep.

8. Add batter to heated oil by the tablespoon keeping them as round as possible.

9. Fry 3-4 minutes on each side or util golden brown and crisp.

10. You may need to top up the oil.

11. Drain/blot on paper towel and keep warm in oven. These are best served hot.

12. Note: If the fritters are soggy it will be because the oil is not hot enough. Best to try a small "test" one first.

13. If making for appetizers, add the batter by teaspoons instead of tablespoons.
