Ingredients:

1 1/2 Cups of Corn Meal Mix

1/4 Cup of Flour

1/4 Cup of Onions

1/2 Cup of Milk (or more if needed)

Oil (for frying)

Directions:

In a deepfryer, begin bringing your oil up to temperature until the oil reaches 350 degrees.

In a bowl, mix 1/2 cups of corn meal mix along with 1/4 cup of flour, 1/4 cup of onions and 1/2 cup of milk. Stir the mixture well until the hushpuppy batter becomes thick enough to hold shape in a metal spoon. If needed you can add more milk to the mixture and stir again.

Once you have the hushpuppy batter mixed together and your oil has came up to temperature and reached 350 degrees, using a metal or wooden spoon, spoon the hushpuppies out of the bowl and drop them gently into the hot oil in the deepfryer.

Turn the hushpuppies over gently every few seconds and cook them until the hushpuppies surface the top of the oil and have became golden brown.

Once the hushpuppies are fully cooked and golden brown, remove the hushpuppies out of the oil and place them on a paper towel covered plate and let the excess oil drain off of the hushpuppies.

These hushpuppies are great served along with fried fish or even fried chicken and if you ask me hushhpuppies are served great at anytime even just for a snack!
