    In a bowl, combine the flour, cornmeal, salt, black pepper, and cayenne pepper. In another bowl, whisk together the egg and milk.

  2. 2

    Batter the Shrimp

    Dip each shrimp into the egg mixture, then coat with the flour mixture, ensuring they are well covered.

    Heat the Oil

    In a large skillet, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C).

  4. 4

    Fry the Shrimp

    Carefully add the shrimp to the hot oil in batches, frying for 2-3 minutes or until they are golden brown and cooked through. Remove and drain on paper towels.

  5. 5

    Assemble the Po’ Boy

    Slice the hoagie buns in half. Layer lettuce, sliced tomato, and fried shrimp in each bun. Drizzle with remoulade sauce.
