Oyster Fritters RecipeFritters is a traditional southern dish. This oyster fritters recipe is very good made with a homemade batter. 48 shucked oysters with liquid 6 eggs, beaten 4 tablespoons baking powder 1/2 teaspoon of oregano 1 teaspoon of crushed black pepper 2 teaspoons of hot sauce or Tabasco 2 cups of all purpose flour 1 cup of milk 1/4 teaspoon of salt 1/4 teaspoon of old bay seasoning 4 tablespoons of unsalted butter 1/2 cup of vegetable or peanut oil Melt the butter in a large pan on medium heat. Saute the oysters about 2 to 3 minutes. Remove the oysters from the pan and cut them into quarter pieces. In another large pan, preheat a skillet to high heat and add the 1/2 cup of oil. While the oil is heating up, mix all the other ingredients into a bowl including the liquid from the oysters. You can control the thickness of the fritter batter by adding additional oyster liquid. Place the quartered oysters into the batter. Drop about a tablespoon of batter for each fritter into the pre-heated oil and fry the fritters until they are golden brown in color. Serve immediately.
