Method

Hush Puppies

1

Prepare the batter

In a large bowl, mix together cornmeal, flour, baking powder, sugar, salt, and black pepper.

2

Add wet ingredients

In another bowl, whisk together the egg and milk. Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Fold in the green onions and diced jalapeños.

3

Heat the oil

In a deep skillet or pot, heat vegetable oil to 350°F (175°C).

4

Fry the hush puppies

Drop spoonfuls of the batter into the hot oil, frying in batches until golden brown, about 3-4 minutes on each side. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels.

Jalapeño Butter
