CONCH FRITTERS: BAHAMIAN STYLE

Conch Fritters: Bahamian Style image

A friend of mine, Debbie, is from the Bahamas and she gave me this recipe. This is a traditional Bahamian recipe that is made with conch, the wonderful shellfish that is delicous but not so easy to find outside of the Bahamas. We, here in South Florida, are very close to Key West; the Conch Republic. These fritters are great as appetizers, finger foods or very tasty hors d'oeuvres to accompany your favorite rum punch or tropical drink! Conch can be replaced with any seafood. Make this batter with calamari, shrimp, imitation crab meat and lobster & see how awesome it turns out. Read about CONCH on the web, it's interesting. BEWARE - these are HOT.

BAHAMIAN CONCH FRITTERS

Bahamian Conch Fritters image

Probably the most popular recipe in the Bahamian/Caribbean cuisine. Fresh Conch isn't always easy to find, and it has to be fresh. Be careful to keep it refrigerated and use as soon as possible.

Ingredients

4 conch, finely minced
1 green pepper, chopped
1 red pepper, chopped
2 celery, chopped
1 onion, finely chopped
1 egg, slightly beaten
1 3/4 cups flour (enough to bind batter)

4 cups vegetable oil, as much as needed

Steps:

1. Combine conch with chopped vegetables.

3. Mix flour, baking powder and salt together and add to conch mixture.
4. Season to taste.

8. Drain on paper towels.
Serve with Key Lime Mustard Sauce (recipe to come) or other coctail sauce.

Place the conch on a cutting board or other tough work surface. Use the rough side of a meat mallet to pound the conch to about 1/4" thickness. Use a very sharp chef's knife to mince the conch meat <1/4" dice. Transfer the conch to the bowl of a food processor. Pulse quickly 10-15 times to chop the conch a little finer. Transfer the chopped conch to a large mixing bowl.
Combine the mayonnaise, lime zest, lime juice, salt and hot sauce in a small bowl. Whisk to combine and refrigerate.
Heat the LouAna Peanut oil in an electric deep fryer to 350°. Use a .05 ounce scoop to portion the batter (I used a cookie scoop). Gently drop the batter into the hot oil from just above the surface so it doesn't splash. Don't crowd the fryer, otherwise it will affect the oil's temperature. I fried about 7 fritters at a time. When you add the fritters to the oil, they will sink to the bottom of the skillet, then float. Cook the fritters for 4-5 minutes, turning occasionally, until golden brown. Use a slotted spoon or spider to transfer the fritters to a paper lined baking sheet.
Arrange the fritters in a basket or on a platter with the aioli and extra hot sauce on the side. Sprinkle with chopped cilantro and tuck lime wedges in and around the fritters. Enjoy with a cold beer!
