These oysters are great as an appetizer, served on top of lightly dressed greens, or in a po boy sandwich.
Ingredients
1 egg
1 cup very very cold soda water
A good squeeze of lemon juice
1/8 teaspoon baking powder
3/4 cup rice flour
2 teaspoons mild curry powder
3/4 cup vegetable oil

Sea salt to taste
Preparation
1. Break the egg into a bowl and beat with the soda water and lemon juice.
2. Add the baking powder, rice flour, and curry powder until frothy.
3. In a large skillet, heat the oil until hot. Test by dropping bits water off your fingertips. If the oil pops, it’s ready.

5. Cook on both sides until browned, about 2 minutes each side.
6. Remove and place on clean paper towels.
