Instructions
- Pound the conch with a meat mallet or the bottom of a heavy pan between two sheets of cling film to tenderise and flatten it.
- Mix the flour with the paprika, salt and pepper in a shallow dish.
- Beat the eggs with the milk in a second dish, and spread the breadcrumbs in a third.
- Dip each slice of conch in the flour, then the egg, then the breadcrumbs, pressing lightly.
- Heat the oil in a pan to about 170 °C and fry the escalopes for 2 to 3 minutes on each side, until golden.
- Drain on kitchen paper, squeeze over lime juice and serve with the rice and peas.
Variations and tips
Spicy version. Add cayenne pepper to the breadcrumbs for a more fiery crust.
