Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Mix Dry Ingredients

    In a large mixing bowl, combine the cornmeal, all-purpose flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar. Whisk together until well blended.

  2. 2

    Prepare Wet Ingredients

    In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk, egg, and finely chopped onion until well combined.

Combining Ingredients

  1. 3

    Combine Mixtures

    Pour the wet mixture into the bowl with the dry ingredients. Stir gently until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; the batter should be lumpy.

Cooking

  1. 4

    Heat Oil

    In a large pot or deep-fryer, heat the vegetable oil to 350°F (175°C). Use a thermometer to ensure accuracy.

  2. 5

    Fry Hush Puppies

    Using a spoon or small ice cream scoop, carefully drop spoonfuls of the batter into the hot oil. Fry in batches until golden brown, about 3-4 minutes per side.

  3. 6

    Drain and Serve

    Once golden brown, remove hush puppies from the oil and drain on paper towels. Serve warm.
