Hushpuppies II
Hushpuppies are so-named because diners supposedly tossed fried cornbread balls to the dogs that lurked beneath the table and whined for fried fish.
List of Ingredients
- 1 1/2 cups white cornmeal
- 1/2 cup flour
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1/2-1 teaspoon salt
- scant 3/4 cup milk
- 1/2 cup minced onion
- 2-3 jalapenos, minced (opt.)
- 1 egg, beaten
- 1 tablespoon oil
Instructions
- Combine ingredients; mix well. Drop by rounded teaspoonfuls into hot oil. Fry only a few at a time to ensure good browning. Drain on paper towels.
