Big John's Cajun Fried Oysters

This is a fairly hot dish. Regular hot sauce can be used in the place of habanero sauce. But why?

Drain oysters , reserving the liquid.

Mix oyster liquid , eggs , hot sauce and milk.

Mix cornmeal , cajun seasoning , cayenne and baking powder.

Saute oysters in butter until edges curl.

Remove from heat and let cool.

Dip oysters first in liquid , then dredge in cornmeal mixture.

Fry oysters in hot pepper oil for three minutes over medium heat , turning once , they are done when golden brown.

Remove , drain on paper towels.

Serve immediately.
