An inexpensive, tasty Celebrity Chef recipe. Prep time includes refrigeration time. Ingredients:
1 cup all-purpose flour |
1/2 cup white sugar |
1/2 cup cornmeal |
2 tablespoons baking powder |
1/4 teaspoon salt |
1/8 teaspoon ground red pepper |
1 cup very finely chopped onion |
1/2 cup very finely chopped green pepper |
1/2 cup very finely chopped green onion, green tops only |
1 egg, beaten |
Directions:
1. In large bowl, combine flour, sugar, cornmeal, baking powder, salt, pepper; mix well, breaking up any lumps.
2. Add chopped onions, green peppers, green onion tops and egg, stirring thoroughly.
3. Note: Mix will be very dry.
4. Cover and refrigerate for about 2 hours, but no longer than 3 hours or batter will get too moist.
5. Shape the dough into small balls for deep frying.
6. In a deep skillet, wok, electric frying pan or a proper deepfryer, heat your preferred deep-frying oil to 330F, slip hush puppies into hot oil, turn heat to low and fry in small batches until dark golden brown, about 4 minutes.
7. Drain on towels and serve hot.
