Dredge oysters first in seasoned flour, then in egg mixture, then in seasoned masa harina.
In a large high-sided skillet heat about 1/2-inch oil over high heat. When hot add half of oysters and fry for about 1 1/2 minutes on each side until golden-brown. Remove with a slotted spoon to paper towels to drain. Repeat with remaining oysters.
