Hush Puppies Preparation
Prepare the Batter
In a large bowl, mix together cornmeal, flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar.
Combine Mixtures
Pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Do not overmix.
Heat the Oil
In a deep frying pan, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat.
Fry the Hush Puppies
Using a spoon, drop batter into the hot oil, frying in batches until golden brown. This should take about 3-4 minutes per batch.
Drain and Serve
Remove hush puppies with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels. Serve hot with spicy dipping sauce.
