Oyster Po-Boy recipe

Makes 4 servings.

1 cup yellow cornmeal
1 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1 teaspoon salt
1 pint oysters (about 16 large), drained
Vegetable oil for deep-frying
1 large or 2 small baguettes
1/2 cup tartar sauce
2 tomatoes, thinly sliced
3 cups shredded iceberg lettuce
Tabasco sauce

On a large plate, combine cornmeal, cayenne pepper and salt. Add oysters and coat completely, shaking to remove excess. In a deep pan, heat 1 1/2 inches oil to 375 degrees F. Fry oysters in batches of 6 or so, stirring occasionally, until golden and just cooked through, about 1 to 2 minutes. Transfer with a slotted spoon to paper towels to drain.

Halve baguettes horizontally and spread tartar sauce on the cut sides. Evenly place tomatoes, lettuce and oysters on bottoms of bread. Season with Tabasco to taste. Top with remaining bread and press together. Cut into 4 pieces and serve immediately.
