I would really like to have the receipe for "Hang Town Fry". Anyone
know what the ratio of ingredients there are in this recipe?

7 eggs
1/2 cup bread crumbs
Salt and pepper
8 small oysters, shucked and drained
3 tablespoons butter
3 tablespoons cream
3 tablespoons fresh parsley, chopped

Crack one of the eggs into a shallow bowl and stir with a fork to mix.
Put bread crumbs in another shallow bowl and season with salt and
pepper. Dip the oysters in beaten egg, allow excess to drip off, and
thoroughly coat in bread crumbs. Heat the butter in a large skillet.
Add oysters and fry over medium heat until crisp and light brown, 1-2
minutes on each side. Meanwhile crack the remaining eggs into medium
bowl and add cream. Stir with fork to thoroughly mix. When oytsters
are crisp and brown, pour egg mixture over and cook, gently, stirring
occasionally with a wooden spoon until eggs are set and cooked to your
liking. Sprinkle with parsley. Fold the omelet in half and cut into
serving pieces.

I went to www.google.com and typed in (including quote marks) "hang
town fry". There must be a billion recipes for it. Google is your
friend - learn to use it <G>.

"right" recipe.)

Hangtown Fry #105298
Legend has it that a 49'er hit a glory hole, an incredibly rich pocket
of gold nuggets. He walked into the El Dorado Hotel restaurant in
Hangtown, now Placerville California, and asked the waiter what was the
most expensive item on the menu. The waiter answered that would be one
of three things, oysters, which were tinned and shipped all the way
from Boston, Bacon, which was scarce, and Eggs, which were also scarce.
The prospector answered, fix them all on one plate and bring it to him.
So was born the 'Hangtown Fry'. If you've never tried this delight,
please do so. Elegance can be complicated but it can also be simple. In
this case it's simple.
2 eggs
1 tablespoon milk
1/4 teaspoon salt
1 dash fresh ground black pepper
1/8 teaspoon freshly ground nutmeg
1/3 cup oysters
1/4 cup flour
1 tablespoon butter, i use ghee
1 tablespoon parsley, finely chopped
3 slices thick deli bacon, fried crisp and crumbled

25 minutes 15 mins prep

N.

I haven't made that in years! I can tell you that I decided saltine
cracker crumbs worked better for me and I didn't fold it like an
omlet. It ended up more like scrambled egg with oysters (and chunks
of crispy bacon).
