Recipe - Rolled Oysters

18 md Oysters, drained
One half cup Flour
One fourth cup Milk
One half teaspoon Salt
Shortening for frying
1 tablespoon Baking powder
1 Well beaten egg
1 cup White corn meal

Sift the flour, baking powder and salt. Beat the egg and milk and add to
make a batter. It should be stiff. Beat smooth. Put all the oysters in
this & coat them well. Take up 3 batter coated oysters at a time and form
them in the hand in a croquette. Quickly roll them in the meal, covering
them completely. Coat the second time, putting them back in the batter &
again in the meal. Deep fry oysters in your deep fryer at 375 degrees.
Lower heat as soon as they go in. Do not cook too quickly. Cook the oysters
for about 3 or 4 minutes until heated throughout and the crust is visibly
brown. Serve with tartar sauce or use a favorite cocktail sauce if you
have one.
