HUSHPUPPIES

Time 20m

Yield 4 servings, approximately 12

Number Of Ingredients 6

Ingredients

2 eggs, beaten
1/2 cup sugar
Kosher salt
1 cup cornmeal
3/4 cup self-rising flour
Peanut oil, for frying

Steps:

Whisk together the eggs, sugar, and salt, to taste, in a large bowl. In a separate bowl, whisk together the cornmeal and flour. Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and stir until incorporated and the batter is thick.
In a heavy-bottomed pot, (Dutch oven) heat enough peanut oil to come halfway up the sides of the pot, to 360 degrees F.
Working in batches, drop the batter, 1 tablespoon (I like to use a small ice cream scoop) at a time, into the oil, being careful to not overcrowd the pot. Fry until deep golden on all sides, turning in the oil for even cooking, about 5 minutes. Transfer the hushpuppies to a paper towel-lined dish and sprinkle with salt while hot. Enjoy!

Time 3h4m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

Ingredients

1 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 cup white sugar
1/2 cup cornmeal
2 tablespoons baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
1/8 teaspoon ground red pepper
1 cup very finely chopped onion
1/2 cup very finely chopped green pepper
1/2 cup very finely chopped green onion, green tops only
1 egg, beaten

Steps:

In large bowl, combine flour, sugar, cornmeal, baking powder, salt, pepper; mix well, breaking up any lumps.
Add chopped onions, green peppers, green onion tops and egg, stirring thoroughly.
Note: Mix will be very dry.
Cover and refrigerate for about 2 hours, but no longer than 3 hours or batter will get too moist.
Shape the dough into small balls for deep frying.
In a deep skillet, wok, electric frying pan or a proper deepfryer, heat your preferred deep-frying oil to 330F, slip hush puppies into hot oil, turn heat to low and fry in small batches until dark golden brown, about 4 minutes.
Drain on towels and serve hot.

Tips:

Use a well-seasoned cast iron skillet for the best results.
Make sure the oil is hot enough before adding the hush puppies to the skillet. This will help them to brown evenly.
Don't overcrowd the skillet. Cook the hush puppies in batches if necessary.
Serve the hush puppies hot with your favorite dipping sauce.
