Hushpuppies

eggs, beaten

sugar

Kosher salt

cornmeal

flour

Peanut oil,

Whisk together the eggs, sugar, and salt, to taste, in a large bowl. In a separate bowl, whisk together the cornmeal and flour. Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and stir until incorporated and the batter is thick.

In a heavy-bottomed pot, (Dutch oven) heat enough peanut oil to come halfway up the sides of the pot, to 360 degrees F.

Working in batches, drop the batter, 1 tablespoon (I like to use a small ice cream scoop) at a time, into the oil, being careful to not overcrowd the pot. Fry until deep golden on all sides, turning in the oil for even cooking, about 5 minutes. Transfer the hushpuppies to a paper towel-lined dish and sprinkle with salt while hot. Enjoy!

I thought it was to much flour &amp; cornmeal mix. I didn’t need to use all of it. The amount of sugar was to much 1/2 cup sugar VS other recipes only used 1/2 tablespoon. It was super sugary. But over it was ok 

I did not get a "batter"; it was more like making cornbread (but very tasty, even if it crumbled and fell apart!). I prepared them per the recipe, in spite of my better judgement to add a couple of tablespoons of milk. I cooked them in my Fry Daddy, using a meatball scoop to measure (approximately 1-1/2T each). They were crumbly all the way through, and 5 minutes is too long - I timed them at 3 minutes each and that was about right. I packed them tight after scooping them, but they were still crumbly. Will experiment more, and try again!

I agree with cdblount.  These were excellent, but did indeed need a bit of milk--maybe a 1/4 of a cup or so.  I guess that's what happens when you can only use 5 ingredients in your recipes!<br />Will be making them again, but with the addition of the milk.

These were o.k. the remoulade sauce helped them. They were rather coarse inside. The first batch did not have alot of flavor, so I added minced garlic to mine. 

These were pretty good, the reason I'm giving 4 stars is because they were too thick, I had to add milk to handle them.  They were sweet just like I like them and my family loved them, will be making again.

The inside was raw. The outside cooked too fast and was almost burned.<br />
