EASY FRIED SCALLOPS
I experimented with some ways to cook scallops one night with my family. This was everyone's favorite and it has become a regular dish at our family fry nights. If serving as a main dish, make twice as many servings as people (about 8 scallops per person).

Steps:
- You will need approximately 1/4 pound of scallops per person. This recipe is for one pound.
DEEP-FRIED SCALLOPS "OSCAR"
Steps:
- For the Oscar sauce: In a medium saucepan, combine the butter, crabmeat, granulated garlic, lemon juice, chives, parsley, 2 tablespoons salt and 2 tablespoons pepper and warm gently. Keep warm.
- For the corn cream: Add the cream, butter, corn, garlic and shallot to a food processor and blend well. Transfer to a saucepan, then simmer until hot. Remove from the heat, then strain through a fine-mesh sieve.
- For the scallops: Combine the cornmeal, flour, Creole seasoning, granulated garlic, 2 1/2 tablespoons salt and 2 1/2 tablespoons pepper in a large bowl. Fill a large Dutch oven halfway with oil and slowly bring the temperature to 350 degrees F. Sprinkle the scallops with salt and pepper, then dredge in some of the cornmeal mixture (reserve the rest for another use). Fry the scallops until golden.
- For serving: Toss together the arugula and watercress with some olive oil, the lemon juice and salt and pepper to taste. Spread the corn cream across 4 plates. Divide the salad among the plates on top of the cream, then top with the scallops. Top the scallops with the crab sauce and serve immediately.
FRIED OYSTERS
Steps:
- For the Tartar Sauce: Combine all of the ingredients in a small bowl. Cover and refrigerate until ready to use.
- Heat oil in a deep fryer to 350°F, in a deep cast iron skillet, or in a Dutch oven over medium heat to a depth of about 2-3 inches, until it reaches 350°F. If you don't have a deep-fry thermometer, sprinkle a few drops of water on the hot oil. If it sizzles, the oil is hot enough.
- Drain the oysters in a colander and pat dry with paper towels. Use a toothpick to poke a small hole in the large round part of each oyster.
- Put the buttermilk in a shallow dish. In a separate shallow dish, combine the cornmeal, flour, salt, Old Bay seasoning and pepper.
- Add the oysters to the buttermilk and soak for a few minutes. Remove the oysters from the buttermilk, gently shake off excess liquid, and dredge in cornmeal mixture to coat on all sides. Shake off excess breading and transfer to a wire rack.
- Working in batches so that you don't overcrowd the pan, fry oysters until golden and crispy, about 2-3 minutes. Drain on paper towels, season with additional salt and pepper (if necessary) while they're still warm, and serve hot with tartar sauce or other dipping sauce.

FRIED SCALLOPS
Use large sea scallops, which are often labeled "u/10" or "u/12," which stands for under 10 or 12 to a pound. And try to get dry scallops as opposed to wet ones, which have been treated with chemicals to extend their shelf life and add moisture. Dry scallops exude much less liquid when cooked and have better texture and flavor. These untreated scallops often tend to be less bright white, but your fishmonger should be able to tell you for sure what you're buying.

Steps:
- Combine flour, corn flour and baking powder in a medium-size aluminum baking pan and shake around to mix well.
- Dry scallops with paper towels, then dip both sides in flour mixture and shake off any excess.
- Put a 20-inch iron skillet over a propane gas burner and turn burner to high. Add enough oil to come to a depth of just over 1/4 inch. Heat until oil is hot but not smoking; you can test it by dropping a small piece of scallop into the oil; it should bubble furiously.
- When oil is hot, add scallops in batches small enough so they're not crowded, and cook just until golden, about 2 to 3 minutes per side. Drain on paper towels and eat right away.
