Hush Puppies Directions

1

Prepare the Batter

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

2

Add Wet Ingredients

Stir in the chopped onion, milk, and beaten egg until just combined. Do not overmix.

Heat the Oil

In a deep pot or fryer, heat the vegetable oil to 375°F (190°C).

Fry the Hush Puppies

Using a spoon, drop heaping tablespoons of the batter into the hot oil. Fry until golden brown, about 3-4 minutes, turning occasionally.

Remove the hush puppies with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels. Serve warm.
