Fried Scallops in Batter

Allow 4-5 large scallops per person (more if smaller, 
obviously)

1 C plain flour
1 dessert spoon baking powder
1 egg, separated
1/2 C. milk

Sift the dry ingredients. Lightly beat egg yolk with 
milk and add to dry ingredients. Beat
until smooth. Beat egg white until stiff and fold into 
batter. Dip each scallop in batter
and fry until golden brown in preheated shortening or 
oil.  Serve with lemon wedges.
