Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Combine Dry Ingredients

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

  2. 2

    Mix Wet Ingredients

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

Cooking

  1. 3

    Combine Mixtures

    Gradually add the wet mixture to the dry mixture, stirring until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; it should be slightly lumpy.

  2. 4

    Heat Oil

    In a deep skillet or frying pan, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C).

  3. 5

    Fry Hush Puppies

    Using a tablespoon, carefully drop spoonfuls of the batter into the hot oil. Fry in batches, making sure not to overcrowd the pan. Cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until they are golden brown.

  4. 6

    Drain and Serve

    Once cooked, remove the hush puppies from the oil and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil. Serve warm.
