Fry the Oysters
In a bowl, whisk together flour, cornmeal, salt, and pepper. In another bowl, whisk the egg with buttermilk. Dip each oyster in the wet mixture, then dredge in the dry mixture. Heat oil in a deep skillet over medium heat. Fry oysters in batches until golden brown, about 2-3 minutes per side. Drain on paper towels.
