- 1
Prepare the conch: If using fresh conch, tenderize it by pounding with a meat mallet to about 1/4 inch thickness. Finely mince the conch meat to about 1/4 inch dice. Alternatively, pulse in a food processor a few times to break it down further.

In a food processor, combine the minced conch, scotch bonnet pepper, minced onion, chopped celery, minced green bell pepper, and minced red bell pepper. Pulse until finely chopped.

In a medium bowl, combine the conch and vegetable mixture with the eggs and fresh thyme. Stir to combine.

In a separate small bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, baking powder, dried thyme, salt, black pepper, and paprika.

Add the dry ingredients to the conch and vegetable mixture. Stir gently until just combined.

Stir in the club soda and beer until you have a thick, unctuous batter.

Heat the peanut oil in a large pot or deep fryer to 350°-375°F (175°-190°C).

Using a 1.5 tablespoon scoop, carefully drop portions of the batter into the hot oil. Fry in batches until golden brown and cooked through, about 3-5 minutes per batch.
