Method:

1. Shell the oysters. Season them with salt and pepper. Clean and chop the spring onions.

2. Beat the egg for 10 seconds. Add the water and beat for another 5 seconds. Add the two flours gradually and mix into a batter. Finally add the chopped spring onion, and blend well.

3. Dip the oysters into the batter and deep-fry them, 3-4 at a time, in hot fat until golden. Drain them on absorbent paper.

4. When all the oysters have been fried and drained, place them on a well-heated dish. Sprinkle them with the balance of chopped spring onion, and lemon juice.
