I have not tried this, but it just sounds soooo good to me! Ingredients:
1 1/4 cups cornmeal |
1/2 cup finely chopped onion |
1/4 cup all-purpose flour |
3/4 teaspoon salt |
1/2 teaspoon baking soda |
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper |
1/8 teaspoon cayenne pepper |
3/4 cup evaporated milk |
1 large egg, lightly beaten |
1 tablespoon lemon juice |
1 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese |
vegetable oil |
Directions:
1. In a mixing bowl, combine cornmeal, onion, flour, salt, baking soda, black pepper and cayenne pepper.
2. In a small bowl, whisk together evaporated milk, egg and lemon juice; fold into cornmeal mixture, along with cheese.
3. Mix just until blended.
4. In a large pot or an electric frying pan, pour in vegetable oil to a 2-inch depth; heat to 350F.
5. Drop batter by rounded tablespoons into hot oil; turn to brown evenly.
6. Cook, turning frequently, for about 3 minutes or until golden brown.
7. Remove with slotted spoon; drain.
8. Serve immediately.
