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. 4 Dredge oysters through batter.
