Pan Fried Oysters With Aged Sherry Sauce And Osetra Caviar Recipes

Steps:

• Combine the lemon juice, shallots and peppercorns in a small bowl. Let sit in the fridge for about 1 hour to let the flavors marry.
• Just before serving, add the prosecco to the sauce and season with a pinch of salt. Spoon the desired amount of the mignonette sauce over the oysters and top each with a dollop of caviar. Serve immediately.

Steps:

• 1. Heat about 1/4" oil in deep skillet over high heat, until bubbly.
• 2. In bowl, combine flour, salt & pepper. Place bread crumbs in another bowl. Dredge oysters in flour mix, then dip into eggs. Roll in breadcrumbs.
• 3. Place about 5 oysters at a time into oil, fry for about 2 min, turning once. Drain on paper towels.

Steps:

• Heat the butter and oil in a skillet. Roll the oysters in the egg and crackers crumbs and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Saute the oysters, turning once, until golden brown. Sprinkle the parsley or paprika on top and garnish with lemon.

Steps:

• Run the corn flakes through a food processor until just ground. In a bowl, combine the remaining ingredients, except the oysters and eggs. Add the corn flakes and stir.
• Dredge oysters in beaten egg, then place in breading mix 1 at a time. Cover oyster in mix by pressing lightly. In a medium saute pan, over high heat, heat oil and add oysters. Oysters will be done when the breading is golden.

Steps:

• To make dressing, combine egg yolks, garlic, shallots, anchovies, Worcestershire, Tabasco, and balsamic vinegar in a blender. Puree until smooth. Slowly add oils until dressing is emulsified and creamy. Add chopped jalapenos, cilantro, lime juice and salt to taste.
• Shuck oysters and reserve juice (or have the fishmonger do this for you).
• In a medium bowl, combine crumbs, serrano chili, garlic, cayenne pepper, and black pepper, mixing well.
• Lift oysters out of juice, 1 at a time, and dredge in crumb mixture to coat heavily. Strain and reserve 1 tablespoon oyster liquor for vinaigrette. Place breaded oysters on waxed paper until ready to fry.
• Heat oil in a large saute pan over medium heat. Carefully place oysters in pan, 1 at a time. Brown for 2 minutes, turn, and brown other side for about 2 minutes. Do not overcook. Remove and keep warm.
• Toss romaine with Caesar Dressing. Place on 4 plates and sprinkle cheese and pomegranate seeds on salad. Dust plate with powdered pumpkin seeds. Place 4 fried oysters on each salad. Serve immediately.

Steps:

• Drain oysters; blot oysters dry on paper towels.
• In a small bowl, beat the eggs slightly.
• Place flour and cracker crumbs on separate sheets of waxed paper.
• Lightly coat oysters in flour; shake off the excess; dip into egg, then in crumbs, pressing crumbs to adhere.
• Place on a sheet of waxed paper.
• Heat 2 tablespoons butter and 1 tablespoon oil in a large skillet over med-high heat until butter is melted.
• Add 1/3 of the oysters; saute 2 minutes or until golden brown.
• Turn oysters and saute another 2 minutes.
• Remove to a baking sheet lined with paper towels; keep warm in low oven.
• Wipe skillet clean; fry remaining oysters in 2 batches; serve warm.

Steps:

• Melt the butter in a small saucepan over low heat, then raise the heat a little and cook at a bare simmer for about 10 minutes. Allow to cool slightly, then pour through a fine-meshed strainer. (Save any milky juices, solids or foam left behind to add to rice or vegetables.) The clarified butter can be kept in a covered jar in the refrigerator for several weeks.
• Remove the crusts from the French loaf. Tear the bread into chunks and pulse in a food processor or blender to make about 4 cups of crumbs. The crumbs will keep in the refrigerator, loosely covered, for several days, or for longer in the freezer, tightly wrapped.
• Season the flour generously with salt and pepper. Dip the oysters in the flour and then in the beaten eggs. Spread a layer of bread crumbs on a baking sheet. Place the oysters on the sheet and sprinkle with more crumbs. Roll the oysters in the crumbs so that they are well coated, adding more if necessary.
• Heat a wide cast-iron skillet over a medium-high flame. Add clarified butter to a depth of 1/2 inch. Toss in a bread crumb - if it browns quickly the butter is hot enough. Carefully slip in breaded oysters in a single layer, frying in batches if needed to avoid crowding. Adjust the heat to keep the oysters gently bubbling in the butter. It should take about 2 minutes to get a golden, crisp coating. Turn the oysters and brown the other side, then drain on kitchen towels. Serve hot with red-pepper mayonnaise, lemon wedges and arugula or watercress, if you like.

Steps:

• In a small bowl, blend together butter, shallot, sage, chives, Sherry, hot sauce, salt, and pepper.
• Light a grill. Put oysters, flat side up, over a hot fire and grill until oysters pop open, 2-3 minutes. As they open, carefully transfer to a plate, keeping juices in shell. Take off top shell, add a dab of butter mixture, and serve right away.

Steps:

• Mix dry ingredients.
• Dredge oysters in this and let sit on paper 5 minutes.
• Heat oil and butter until sizzling hot.
• Add oysters.
• Brown lightly 30-40 seconds on each side.
• Serve immediately with lemon juice or tartar sauce.

Steps:

• Prepare the oysters: Season flour with salt and pepper. Dredge each oyster in the flour, then dip in the beaten egg, then coat evenly in the panko.
• Set breaded oysters on a baking cooling rack, leaving a little room between the oysters so they can dry and set. Refrigerate until ready to fry and serve.
• Make the sauce: Finely mince garlic with a pinch of salt until sticky and pasty. Mince shallots, cornichons and capers as finely as possible. Add all to a small bowl. Stir in mayonnaise, sour cream, lemon juice, caper brine and cornichon vinegar, and stir well. Add chopped parsley, stir well and season to taste with salt. Refrigerate until ready to serve.
• Fry the oysters: Melt enough shortening in a deep medium skillet (we love cast iron) over medium for 1 1/2 inches of liquified fat once hot. Increase heat to medium-high. It's ready to fry in when a few crumbs of panko or the tip of a wooden chopstick sizzles actively in the fat.
• Add the oysters cold from the refrigerator, working in batches of 6 to 8 or as you have room. Fry, making sure to turn them to get both sides, until golden brown, 1 to 2 minutes, depending on size. Remove with a slotted spoon or spider, and let rest on a clean rack while you fry the rest. Season each batch with a little salt while still piping hot, as soon as you pull them from the fat. Serve with tartar sauce.
