Cooking Directions

1. 1

   Prepare the Oysters

   Rinse the fresh oysters under cold water and pat them dry with paper towels.

   Make the Battering Mixture

   In a bowl, combine corn flour, all-purpose flour, garlic powder, paprika, salt, and black pepper. Mix well.

   Coat the Oysters

   Dip the oysters in buttermilk, then toss them in the flour mixture until fully coated.

4. 4

   Heat the Oil

   In a deep frying pan, heat vegetable oil over medium-high heat until hot (about 350°F or 175°C).

   Slice the fresh baguette lengthwise. Place a layer of lettuce on the bottom, followed by the fried oysters, sliced tomato, and drizzle with hot sauce to taste.
