Description

Many from the South consider deep frying seafood is the best technique. Fried oysters can be served as an entree or served up as a oyster po-boy or “Peace Maker” as it is called in New Orleans. The Peace Maker or oyster loaf is what New Orleans men would come home with as a peace offering after a night on the town.

Ingredients

  • 24 whole Lagre Raw Oysters, Drained
  • 1-½ cup Cups Zatarain's Fish Fry® Or Yellow Corn Flower
  • 2 Tablespoons Tablespoons Frank’s Famous Creole Seasoning
  • 2 cups Vegetable Oil For Frying (approximate

Preparation

* For the creole seasoning recipe, go to https://tastykitchen.com/recipes/recipes/sidedishes/franke28099s-famous-creole-seasoning/

1. In a black cast iron pot, heat the vegetable oil to about 375ºF.
2. Blend Fish Fry and Frank’s Famous Creole Seasoning in a wide shallow dish.
3. Drain oysters well in a colander.
4. Dredge oysters a few at a time in flour mixture, taking care to completely coat each oyster.
5. Then, immediately drop them in the oil, slowly! And one at a time! If you put too many oysters into the oil at once, the temperature will drop and the oysters will get soggy.
6. Stir occasionally with a slotted spoon, until golden and just cooked through, 2 to 3 minutes.
7. Transfer with slotted spoon to paper towels to drain.
8. Return oil to 375°F.
9. Repeat procedure with remaining oysters.
10. Serve oysters hot with catsup, Tabasco® and lemon wedges.

Note: Do not cover the oysters after they have fried. Trying to keep oysters hot by covering them only traps internal steam and results in soggy oysters.
