Ingredients
- 1 cup yellow cornmeal
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 2 tablespoons granulated sugar
- 2 teaspoons baking powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 medium onion, finely chopped
- 1 None egg, beaten
- 0.75 cup milk
- 4 cups vegetable oil, for frying
Directions
Step 1
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the cornmeal, flour, sugar, baking powder, and salt until well combined.
Step 2
Add the finely chopped onion to the dry ingredients and mix to distribute evenly.
Step 3
In a separate small bowl, beat the egg and mix it with the milk.
Step 4
Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. The batter should have a thick consistency.
Step 5
Heat the vegetable oil in a deep fryer or large, heavy-bottomed pot to 350°F (175°C). Use a deep-fry thermometer to monitor the temperature.
Step 6
Using a spoon or small cookie scoop, carefully drop spoonfuls of the batter (about 1 to 2 tablespoons per hush puppy) into the hot oil. Be careful not to overcrowd the pot.
Step 7
Fry the hush puppies for 2-3 minutes, turning occasionally, until they are golden brown and cooked through.
Step 8
Use a slotted spoon to transfer the hush puppies to a plate lined with paper towels to drain any excess oil.
Step 9
Serve warm as a side dish or snack. Enjoy!
