Smoke-Fried Oysters

Type: Fish
Serves: 4 people

Recipe Ingredients

20 oz 568gShucked medium oysters
2/3 cup 41g / 1.4ozAll-purpose flour
2/3 cup 97g / 3.4ozSaltine cracker crumbs
1 teaspoon 5mlBlack pepper
2   Eggs
2 tablespoons 30mlDijon mustard
  Vegetable oil
1   Pan alder smoking chips
  Tarter sauce or bottled
  Honey mustard dressing

Recipe Instructions

Rinse oysters and drop into boiling water. Bring to a boil again and boil for 3 minutes. Rinse again in cold water and smoke for 45 minutes.

While oysters are smoking whisk egg with mustard in a small bowl. Combine cracker crumbs, pepper and flour in a pie plate.

When the oysters have finished smoking roll them in the flour/cracker mixture and set on a plate. Next dip the oysters in the egg/mustard mixture and roll in the flour/cracker mixture again and return to the plate.

Pour a film of oil into a 12 inch skillet and heat over medium-high heat until a cube of bread is golden in 20 seconds. Add oysters to pan (it's OK to crowd oysters, but don't overlap) and cook until golden on bottom, about 2 minutes. Turn and brown other side, about 2 minutes. Serve with lemon wedges and bottled honey mustard dressing or tarter sauce.
