MAMA'S CORNMEAL HUSHPUPPIES

Steps:

• In a large bowl, mix the cornmeal, onions, jalapeno and a pinch of salt. Add enough of the buttermilk to make a stiff batter. You may not need the whole 2 cups.
• Heat the peanut oil in a deep fryer or a large heavy bottomed pot to 250 degrees F.
• Drop the batter into the hot oil by teaspoonfuls. The hushpuppies will turn over in the oil as they cook. They are done when they are brown all over, 6 to 8 minutes. Remove them from the oil with a slotted spoon, drain on paper towels and season with salt. Keep the hushpuppies warm while you fry the remaining batter. Serve hot.

Steps:

• Heat oil in a heavy skillet (about 2- 2 1/2 inches of oil) until hot.
• Beat the egg and then mix in the remaining ingredients.
• Make sure that your dry ingredients are all moist.
• Using a tablespoon, drop balls of batter into the hot oil, about 2 inches long by 1 inch thick.
• NOTE: I usually only cook about 4 or 5 at a time.
• These should float in the hot oil, but not be covered by it.
• You will need to turn these as they cook.
• Fry until they are a golden brown and then drain them on paper towels.
• Serve with fish- of course!
