These fritters take us into the heart of the Caribbean where islanders have been feasting on the conch version for many generations.

¼ cup oyster water or clam juice
4 tablespoons thinly sliced green onions
3 tablespoons chopped parsley
1 tablespoon powdered garlic
1 teaspoon crushed red pepper flakes
1 teaspoon coarsely ground black pepper
Vegetable oil for frying

How to prepare:

In a large mixing bowl, first combine flours, sugar, salt and baking powder. Add oysters and liquid ingredients and combine. Add seasonings. Refrigerate for 30 minutes.
