Oyster "Po' Mi" Sandwich

  • Prep 30 min
  • Total 60 min
  • Servings 3

Ingredients

  • 1 baguette
  • 24 oysters
  • 1/2 cup flour
  • 1/2 cup cornmeal
  • Cucumber
  • Cilantro
  • 1/4 cup mayonnaise
  • 1/4 cup sriracha

Pickled vegetables

  • 3 large carrots
  • 2 cloves garlic
  • 1 large daikon radish
  • 2 tablespoons sugar
  • 2 cups vinegar

Steps

  • 1
    Make the pickled carrot and daikon mixture: Shred the carrots and daikon radishes with either a food processor or a julienne peeler. Stuff into a jar. A leftover pickle or mustard jar is what I usually use. Tuck in your garlic cloves. Bring the vinegar to a simmer. Stir in the sugar. Pour the vinegar over the veggies and seal. Let it sit about an hour, and shake it up every once in awhile.
  • 2
    Mix the flour with the cornmeal and add some salt.
  • 3
    Shuck the oysters. Be careful, and make sure you use a strong knife and thick gloves!
  • 4
    Toss the oysters in the flour mixture and drop into 350°F oil (use a deep fry thermometer and a sturdy pot). Fry for about two and a half minutes. Strain and dry.
  • 5
    Slice the cucumbers. Mix the sriracha and mayo together.
  • 6
    Build your sandwich by slicing the baguette in half and layering on the spicy mayo, cucumbers, fried oysters, pickled veg, and cilantro.

    I like to make this as one very long sandwich filling the whole baguette, then slice off more manageable pieces for dining companions.
