I made these with canned conch and they were terrific. My daughter and granddaughter just came back from Bahamas and they requested that I make these. They said they tasted just like the Bahamas. They said they had conch fritters everyday that they were there. By the way, if you refrigerate onions, you won't cry! Thanks for the video!

Thanks for posting! A very helpful video. I just made a batter but it seemed too fluid to be the best consistency for deep frying however I see that yours is more liquid than I would have thought optimal. I'll go with what I have and hope for the best.

[@Melda242]

Hello Marcus, thanks for watching, just add a little more flour and seaoning to correct the texture.

Why waste your time? it's not "BAHAMIAN CONCHY CONCH FRITTERS" with the conch!! It's like having fried snapper with out the snapper!!

[@marlinlgoodluck2626]

Hi what kind of flour.. self rising or all purpose flour..

[@Melda242]

Hello Marlin, thank you for the support. You ca use all-purpose or self rising flour. Please remember if you use the self rising flour do not add any baking powder or salt, ok. Happy cooking and may God bless you. My cookbook is now available on Amazon, with this recipe and a lot more.

[@divadory1110]

I had those in the Bahamas and loved them. I didn't know what conch was, I thought was fish.

[@Melda242]

Lol, thanks for watching Diva Dory it is similar to clams all muscles. I appreciate your kindness.

[@cancancarter9900]

Wow...would this be the same method for tuna fish fritters please? For those of us that can’t find conch in the U.S...

[@Melda242]

Welcome to my channel and thanks for watching. Yes you could use this method, but make sure you are using albacore tuna (solid tuna). All the best and let me know how they came out.

@@Melda242 thank you ma'am!!

[@DaveKrause-qe2yy]

U mentioned that u added more baking powder like a teaspoon & a 1/2 after the batter was mixed. So, if I’m reading u right, that’s additional to the 2 tsp. that u already used in the batter for a total of 3 1/2 tsp. of baking powder correct???

[@Melda242]

Hello and thank you for the support. Use an additional 2 to 3 teaspoons of baking powder for a total of 2 1/2 or 3 1/2 teaspoons. Please bear in mind, the type of flour and or the baking powder you are using could make a difference in the amount you use as well.
