Steps:
- Place the conch slices in a nonreactive bowl and squeeze the juice of 1 lime over the slices. Allow to sit for 10 minutes, then drain and finely chop the conch meat. Set aside.
- Heat a deep-fryer filled with oil to 330 degrees F.
- Combine the flour, baking powder, salt and cayenne pepper and whisk to combine. In a separate bowl, whisk together the egg yolks, milk, conch, and onion. Add the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients and stir until just combined. In a third bowl, whip the egg whites until stiff peaks form. Gently fold the egg whites into the conch mixture.
- When ready to fry the fritters, drop the batter by tablespoonfuls into the hot oil and cook, stirring occasionally, until golden brown and floating on the surface of the oil, about 4 minutes. Transfer to paper-lined plates to drain briefly before serving. Sprinkle lightly with Essence and serve with the Cilantro Tartar Sauce.
- Combine all ingredients thoroughly.
- Recipe from "New New Orleans Cooking", by Emeril Lagasse and Jessie Tirsch, published by William Morrow, 1993.
- Put the egg, mustard, garlic, lime juice, cilantro, and red onions in a food processor and puree for 15 seconds. With the processor running, pour the oil through the feed tube in a steady stream. Season with salt and hot sauce and pulse once or twice to blend. Cover and let sit for 1 hour in the refrigerator before using. Best if used within 24 hours.
CARIBBEAN CONCH FRITTERS
For anyone who has spent a vacation down south in the Caribbean likely has tried Conch Fritters. These are a soft and delicious seafood served simular to a veggie tray with a dipping sauce. The dipping sauce is to preferance, I have included my choice of sauce. The taste is matched by the difficulty finding conch at your supermarket. I found a few Asian supermarkets that carry conch meat always.

CONCH FRITTERS: BAHAMIAN STYLE
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.
