Fresh oysters are covered in a spicy coating and deep fried until golden brown.

48 extra small oysters, shucked
1 cup flour
1 tablespoon Cajun seasoning, or as desired
2/3 cup canola oil for frying (more if needed)
Combine the flour with the Cajun seasoning, adding more or less as desired.
Heat the oil in a deep pan over medium-high heat.
While the oil is heating, dredge the oysters in the flour mixture, coating each one well and shaking off any excess flour.
When the oil is hot, add the oysters in batches (do not crowd them) and cook until the edges are browned and curled. Turn to cook on all sides.
Remove the oysters to paper toweling to drain. Serve hot with tartar sauce and lemon wedges.

Pumpkins aren't just for pies or Halloween decorations. These large, orange gourds - while naturally sweet - also work well in savory dishes. They pair well with poultry and pork (and especially bacon) and their creamy-when-cooked texture blends easily into soups.
Ah, the unassuming envelope of onion soup mix. It's more than just for onion soup (or dip). It adds tremendous flavor (and convenience) in all these recipes.
