Method
Preparation of Seafood
- 1
In a large bowl, rinse the shrimp, catfish, and oysters under cold water and pat them dry with paper towels.
Batter Preparation
- 2
Make the Batter
In a shallow bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, cornmeal, salt, black pepper, paprika, and garlic powder. In another bowl, beat the eggs and mix with milk until well combined.
- 3
Coat the Seafood
Dip each piece of seafood first into the egg mixture and then coat with the flour mixture, pressing slightly to adhere the batter.
Frying
- 4
In a deep frying pan or pot, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C).
- 5
Carefully add the battered shrimp, catfish, and oysters to the hot oil, cooking in batches if necessary to avoid overcrowding.
- 6
Fry for about 3-4 minutes or until the seafood is golden brown and cooked through. Use a slotted spoon to remove them from the oil and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.
Serving
- 7
Serve the fried seafood hot with cocktail sauce and tartar sauce on the side. Accompany with fries.
