Method
Preparation
Prepare the Potatoes
Peel and grate the potatoes using a box grater or food processor. Place the grated potatoes in a clean kitchen towel and squeeze out any excess moisture.
Make the Potato Mixture
In a mixing bowl, combine the grated potatoes, flour, salt, black pepper, and the egg. Mix well until all ingredients are evenly combined.
Cooking
Heat the Oil
In a large skillet, heat the vegetable oil over medium heat until shimmering.
Form the Crust
Take a spoonful of the potato mixture and flatten it in the palm of your hand. Place an oyster in the center, then mold the potato mixture around the oyster to create a crust.
Fry the Oysters
Carefully place the potato-crusted oysters in the hot oil, frying in batches to avoid overcrowding. Cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side until golden brown and crispy.
Drain and Serve
Remove the oysters from the oil and drain on paper towels. Serve immediately with lemon wedges on the side.
