Fried Oysters
Method
Spicy Remoulade
Prepare the Remoulade
In a bowl, combine mayonnaise, Dijon mustard, horseradish, lemon juice, capers, and hot sauce. Mix well and season with salt and pepper to taste.
Prepare the Oysters
In a shallow dish, whisk together flour, cornmeal, salt, black pepper, and cayenne pepper. In another bowl, whisk the eggs and buttermilk together.
Coat the Oysters
Dip each oyster in the egg mixture, then dredge in the flour mixture until well coated.
Fry the Oysters
Heat oil in a deep skillet over medium-high heat. Fry the coated oysters in batches until golden brown and crispy, about 2-3 minutes per side. Drain on paper towels.
Serve
Serve the fried oysters hot with a side of spicy remoulade for dipping.
