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.

Categories     Mussels

Time 40m

Yield 6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

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)
3 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 dash pepper, Bahamian hot pepper sauce (or equal)
4 cups vegetable oil, as much as needed

Steps:

  • 1. Combine conch with chopped vegetables.
  • 2. Add egg.

  • 4. Season to taste.
  • 5. Form into balls 1 - 2 inches in size.

  • 7. Fry 3 - 5 minutes until golden brown on all sides, turning the fritters as they rise to the surface.
  • 8. Drain on paper towels.

CONCH FRITTERS (THE BAHAMAS)



Conch Fritters (The Bahamas) image

This recipe Is from week 19 of my food blog, "Travel by Stove." I am attempting to cook one meal from every nation on Earth, and The Bahamas are my 19th stop. Poster's Note: I never use any recipes for Travel by Stove (this one included) that I am not reasonably certain come from traditional or authentic sources. I never add or remove ingredients from them before I post them to my blog or to Food.com, even if I think the recipe might benefit from changes. In this way I can be sure I'm giving my readers a true representation of cuisine from the region. Conch fritters are served in restaurants all over the islands, so many people think of them as a big part of the Bahamian tourist experience. If you can't find conch in your local market (and you probably can't), you can order a canned version online.

Time 35m

Yield 30 Fritters

Number Of Ingredients 16

conch, ground
1/2 green bell pepper, diced fine
1/2 red bell pepper, diced fine
1/2 yellow bell pepper, diced fine
1/2 white onion, diced fine
1 celery rib, finely sliced
1 teaspoon jalapeno chile, minced
1 tablespoon chopped fresh cilantro
1 tablespoon dried thyme
3 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon jamaican jerk seasoning
water
vegetable oil (for frying)
1/2 cup ketchup
1/2 cup lime juice
1/4 cup mayonnaise

Steps:

  • In a small bowl, whisk together the dipping sauce ingredients.
  • Finely mince or grind the conch meat.
  • Sift the flour over the bowl containing the ground conch meat. Stir until the flour coats all of the meat.
  • Gently fold in the chopped vegetables and the herbs, then add some water. You want just enough to bind it all together but not so much that the batter becomes runny.
  • Heat up about two inches of oil in a stockpot. It's ready when it bubbles up around the non-stirring end of a wooden spoon.
  • Scoop up some of the fritter batter and flatten it out into the spoon. The fritters need be a little thin because you don't want them to end up burned on the outside and raw in the middle. These aren't sushi fritters.
  • Drop them into the oil. Flip them once during cooking so they will cook evenly.
  • When they are a nice golden color on both sides take them out and drain them on a paper towel. Serve hot with the dipping sauce.
