- When you want a pan fried oyster, heat a frying pan with a tight fitting lid to medium heat and add 2 tbsp margarine. Take out as many as you want, place in the pan and let brown for 3 minute Flip the oysters, turn up the heat to high, pour in 2 tbsp water and cover with the lid. Fry for 4 minute Take off the lid (the heat from the steam will cook the oysters) Their should be a cloud of steam when you take off the lid. The oysters will now be soft.
