These hush puppies have a cake like consistency (not your little ball of dry cornmeal). This is my base recipe, but it can be altered to your own taste, such as less sugar and more jalapeño. The catfish recipe is my husband's, and is more of an ingredient than a recipe, but this is our most requested meal when we're having friends over, so I thought I'd add it. I usually also serve with french fries, onion rings and fried mushrooms. Not the most healthy meal in the world...but oh, so good.

These hush puppies were delicious! I made them for my family and they loved them. They were crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside. I would definitely recommend this recipe.

I made these hush puppies last night and they were a hit! My family loved them. They were so easy to make and they turned out perfect. I will definitely be making them again.

The catfish was also very good. It was cooked perfectly, and the breading was crispy and flavorful. I would definitely recommend this recipe to anyone looking for a delicious and easy meal.

These hush puppies were amazing! I've never had them before, but they were so good that I ate the whole batch myself. They were crispy on the outside and fluffy on the inside, and the flavor was perfect. I will definitely be making these again.
