About Conch Fritters
Nassau Paradise Island’s conch fritters represent a familiar Bahamian appetizer or light meal. The published version combines chopped conch with a batter of all-purpose flour, egg and milk.
White onion, green pepper, celery and garlic add vegetable and aromatic flavour to the conch. Cayenne and pepper season the mixture alongside salt.
The batter forms small, rounded fritters with golden fried surfaces. Mayonnaise is the selected dipping accompaniment from the publisher’s sauce choices, keeping the focus on its named conch version.
