Hush puppies (from foxfire)

10 Servings

Ingredients

Quantity Ingredient
1 cup Self-rising flour
1 cup Cornmeal
⅛ teaspoon Salt
¼ teaspoon Baking soda
1 Egg
1½ cup Buttermilk -- or as needed
1 medium Onion -- chopped
Fat -- for deep frying

Directions

Sift together flour, cornmeal, salt, and soda. Add egg and buttermilk until it's the right consistency to hold its shape when rolled into a ball. Mix in onion, then roll into balls about 1 to 2 inches across and drop in deep hot fat. Fry until they're brown and crispy. Let them drain a bit on some paper and serve hot.
