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).

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 SEA SCALLOPS
This is my kid's favorite dish to order at our favorite seafood restaurant in coastal North Carolina. They are so good! This isn't a copy cat recipe, just me trying to mimick an awesome dish. I think I've come close!

DEEP-FRIED OYSTERS WITH ROCKET AND TOMATO DRESSING
I first put these oysters on the menu at Monte's - they were served raw with the tomato dressing. One day we tempuraed them to serve as canapes and they went down so well I thought I'd give you the recipe. When picking the kids for the new restaurant I served these to them as a bit of a taste test and asked for their reaction. They're such an experience to eat, as they're crunchy, soft, sour, sweet and salty. You can serve these as a starter or as canapes.

Steps:
- Open the oysters and clean the shells or ask your fishmonger to do this for you. To make the batter, whisk the flour with the cold water and fold in the stiffly whisked egg white and 1 tablespoon of olive oil. To make the dressing, whiz the tomatoes in a blender with the horseradish, garlic and vinegar. Add the hot pepper sauce and season with salt and pepper. Tweak the amounts of hot pepper sauce and vinegar to tast e¿ you want it to be hot and tangy. Pass the mixture through a fine sieve to remove any chunky bits. This will give you a nice smooth dressing. Check the seasoning.
- Heat the vegetable oil in a deep-fat fryer to 350 degrees F (180 degrees C) and fry the arugula in small batches for about 25 seconds until nice and crisp. Remove and place on some kitchen paper. Drop each oyster into the batter, then remove with a spoon and fry for around 2 minutes until crisp and golden. Serve each oyster in its shell on a little fried rocket, drizzled with the tangy tomato dressing.
- Try this: Place the shells on some cracked ice or a bed of coarse sea salt.
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.
