Panko Breaded Fried Oysters

December 12, 2019 by Benjamin and Koshiki Leave a Comment

I love the large size plump oysters from Washington state for its clean and juicy taste.  There are five species of oysters farmed in Pacific Northwest and two of which (The Pacific Oysters and The Kumamoto) are originally from Japan, my home town of Kumamoto.  Make sure to choose large and firm oysters for this recipe.  

For the Panko Breaded Oysters, oysters are cleaned, breaded, fried and served with Tonkatsu sauce (Japanese brown sauce) and a wedge of lemon.  Serve fried oysters with chilled dry sparkling white wine or champagne for a treat.
