oysters, cornmeal, flour, oil

Fried oysters are a classic seafood dish popular in the Southern United States, particularly in the Lowcountry, where fresh oysters are abundant. The oysters are typically coated in a seasoned cornmeal or flour mixture and fried until golden and crisp on the outside while remaining tender and juicy inside. Known for their contrast in texture and rich, briny flavor, they are commonly served as an appetizer, sandwich filling, or part of a seafood platter.
