...Any fried fish you gotta have Hush Puppies, period. Good w/any kind of fish too.
STUFF(better known as ingredients)

1) 1 cup yellow corn meal
2) 3/4 cup flour
3) 1 tsp. baking powder
4) 1/2 tsp. salt (kosher, not because I'm jewish, it's just better, or sea salt is great too)
5) 1/2 tsp. FRESH ground black peppercorn, already ground Blk/pepper wks. if you just goota use it,...lazy
6) 1/4 tsp. fresh minced garlic, ok, powder if your lazy
7) 1/4 cup Beer for puppies, so drink the rest
8) 1 small onion, minced, your onion, your choice (green are best)
9) 2 eggs, free range, or store bought if your lazy
10) 1/2 cup milk, fresh, or store bought if your lazy,...[:D](kidding)

HOW TO


HEAT OIL TO AROUND 365, I LIKE PEANUT OIL, BUT YOUR CHOICE.
MIX EVERTHING IN BIG BOWL, WELL.
DROP IN OIL BY SPOONFULL, OR WET YOUR CLEAN HANDS W/WATER AND ROLL AROUND INTO A TOUCH SMALLER THAN GOLFBALL SIZE, DROP IN OIL.
HANG TIGHT, AS THEY JUST TAKE A FEW MIN., AS THEY COOK, "ROLL" THEM AROUND IN OIL, AFTER THEY FIRM UP, (YOU NEED ENOUGH OIL FOR THEM TO FLOAT WELL)
WHEN GOLDEN BROWN, DIP OUT, DRAIN...enjoy, makes about a dozen
...I use a tool for a wok, for rolling them around and dipping out, "flat wire basket" on bamboo handle, works great, anything you have will work.

    Zip, Van, your recipes are on file, with my others.

    ...Hush puppies were made for "adding" a gazillion things to them, but vanmeters recipe has elevated them to "appetizer" status!

    ...I usually make a jalepeno batch, and a mild batch for the wussies
