Hush Puppies

Method

Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the batter

    In a large mixing bowl, combine cornmeal, flour, baking powder, sugar, and salt. Mix well.

  2. 2

    Add wet ingredients

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

  3. 3

    Heat the oil

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

  4. 4

    Fry the hush puppies

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

  5. 5

    Drain and serve

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