# How to Make It:

02 - In a separate bowl, beat the egg and mix with buttermilk and melted butter until smooth.
03 - Gradually add the wet mixture to the dry ingredients, mixing just until combined. Be careful not to overmix to maintain tenderness.
04 - Heat vegetable oil in a deep skillet to 350°F (175°C), ensuring sufficient depth for frying.
