Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 pound fresh conch meat
- 1 cup almond flour
- 0.25 cup coconut flour
- 3 pieces large eggs
- 0.5 cup red bell pepper, finely chopped
- 0.25 cup green onions, finely chopped
- 2 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon onion powder
- 0.5 teaspoon paprika
- 0.25 teaspoon cayenne pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.5 teaspoon black pepper
- 0.5 cup avocado oil
Instructions
Begin by preparing the conch meat. Rinse it under cold water and pat it dry with paper towels.
Using a sharp knife, finely chop the conch meat into small, even pieces.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the chopped conch meat, almond flour, coconut flour, and beaten eggs. Stir well to form a smooth batter.
Add the red bell pepper, green onions, and parsley to the batter. Mix until well incorporated.
Season the mixture with garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, cayenne pepper, salt, and black pepper. Stir to combine.
In a large skillet, heat the avocado oil over medium-high heat. The oil should be hot but not smoking.
Carefully drop heaping tablespoonfuls of the conch mixture into the hot oil, flattening slightly with the back of the spoon. Be sure not to overcrowd the pan.
Fry the fritters for about 2-3 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and cooked through.
Remove the fritters from the pan and drain on paper towels to remove excess oil.
Serve the keto conch fritters warm with your favorite low-carb dipping sauce.
