Question

Also does anyone have a good recpie for the fried oyster? i dont like a thick batter becauses it take away from the taste of the oyster and thats why i rarely order them at a resturant? Does anyone know who sells them already battered in the store and which store??

Answer 1

The easy way to make fried oysters so they do not have an extra thick coating is the following:
Buy fresh oysters from a meat market. Drain the oysters, beat 2 eggs, drop oysters into egg mixture. Then take "cracker meal', nabisco makes this and it can be bought in the aisle with cakes mixes etc. or take saltine crackers and crumble into meal. Roll the oysters in the cracker meal till they are coated well.
Fry the oysters in hot oil, turning as soon as they begin to brown, continue to turn until they are well browned, drain on towels.
SERVE with fries, cole slaw or baked potato and salad.
serve with either cocktail sauce or catsup mixed with grated horseradish. Good luck, these are awesome.

Answer 3

I don't know of any already breaded in a store, but you can use cornmeal as the batter if you don't like the thick kind. Just wash the oyster, dip in egg that has been seasoned (we use red pepper and garlic powder), and roll in the corn meal then fry them up.

For the sauce, if you get ketchup and slowly add horseradish to it (too much is not good) and stir it that is good. Other people lately have used Wasabi Mayo by French's that I have tasted and it is really good.

For the sides I would get french fries, or any breaded vegetable that you like and serve it with a salad.
