Directions:For the oysters:
Drain the shucked oysters then soak them in 1 cup of milk for 15 minutes, then drain. Meanwhile, in a medium-sized bowl combine eggs, 1 tablespoon milk, water, and vinegar. In a large brown bag combine flour, cornmeal, salt, pepper, and cayenne. In a medium-sized, heavy-bottomed pot over medium-high heat, start to heat the vegetable oil. Pour drained oysters into the liquid mixture. Use a fork to transfer oysters to the bag of combined dry ingredients and shake. When the oil has reached 360 degrees, carefully submerge 4-5 oysters in the hot pot. Do not overcrowd. Fry for 3 minutes, turning once. Drain on a paper bag or paper towels.
For the remoulade:
Zip all ingredients together in a food processor and chill for at least an hour before serving.
To serve, split open the hoagie rolls and spread both sides with remoulade. Add 6-8 oysters to each roll and cover with a layer of lettuce. Serve with a squeeze of lemon. |
