While the oil is heating, combine the onion, cornmeal, flour, sugar, and salt together in a medium bowl.

In a small bowl, whisk the egg into the buttermilk. Add to the dry mixture and stir until just combined. Allow the batter to rest for about 5 minutes.

Drop the batter by heaping tablespoonsful carefully into the hot oil and fry for 5 to 6 minutes, turning over once, or until golden brown and cooked through. Drain on a wire rack over paper towels. Working in batches, being sure not to cook too many at one time as the oil temp will drop and the hush puppies will end up greasy. Be sure to adjust the heat to keep the oil at about 350°F.

It doesn't get better than tender, flaky, and extra flavorful fried catfish fillets with crispy golden cornmeal breading. Marinated in buttermilk and seasoned well with a variety of spices.

The Best Fried Catfish (Fish Fry 101)

lbs catfish

ranch seasoning

white pepper

smoked paprika

Louisiana hot sauce

peanut oil, for frying- vegetable, canola oil

onion

egg,

(8.75 ounces) canned whole kernel corn, drained

Marinate the catfish: In a large bowl, combine the catfish fillets, buttermilk, ranch seasoning, salt, garlic powder, white pepper, paprika, and hot sauce together. Use your hands (with disposable gloves, if desired) to mix everything together to fully combine. Cover the bowl with a lid or plastic wrap and transfer it into the refrigerator to marinate for at least one hour.

Prepare the catfish flour dredge: In a shallow pie plate, combine the cornmeal, flour, salt, minced onion, garlic powder, white pepper, and paprika together. Use a fork to mix everything together until well combined. Then set the flour dredge aside.

Mix dry ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine the cornmeal, flour, minced onion, salt, sugar, white pepper, baking powder, and baking soda together. Use a whisk or a fork to mix all of the dry ingredients together until fully combined.

Add in the wet ingredients: Add in the egg, buttermilk, and hot sauce. Mix everything together again until just combined.  Carefully fold in the corn until fully incorporated in the batter.

Fill a large heavy bottomed dutch oven or deep cast iron skillet with oil over medium high heat. Use a deep fry thermometer to monitor the temperature of the oil until it reaches at least 350°F.

Frying the hush puppies: Take a spoonful of the hush puppie batter and use another spoon to scrape off the batter directly into the hot oil. Repeat the process until you get as many dollops of batter into the pot without any overcrowding (fry them in batches if you need to). Fry the hush puppies until golden brown, about 1-2 minutes on each side. Use a slotted spoon to take them out. Then set the hush puppies aside onto a plate/baking sheet lined with paper towel.

Frying the catfish: Make sure the oil is at least 350°F. One by one, take each of the marinated catfish fillets and dredge them into the cornmeal mixture until coated on all sides, shaking off any excess flour. Carefully place the catfish fillets (fry in batches to avoid overcrowding) into the hot oil and fry them until golden brown and crispy, about 4-5 minutes. Note: if you prefer your catfish fried hard then fry them until your desired consistency is reached. Use tongs or a fish spatula to carefully take the catfish out and place the fried catfish fillets onto a baking sheet fitted with a wire rack to allow excess oil to drip off. Repeat the process until all of the catfish is fried.

Enjoy the catfish warm alongside hush puppies and side items such as coleslaw, collard greens, and macaroni and cheese. Also serve with condiments like tartar sauce and hot sauce, if desired.

Southern Hush Puppies are deceptively delicious bites of slightly sweetened cornmeal batter flavored with a little onion and fried until crisp on the outside and fluffy and light on the inside. They make a fantastic appetizer or side dish for almost any meal!

Southern Hush Puppy Recipe

cornmeal ((138 grams))

all-purpose flour, (scooped & leveled (71 grams))

Tablespoons sugar ((25 grams))

egg, (lightly beaten)

buttermilk ((169 grams))

onion, (grated (about 1/4 to 1/3 cup))

Peanut or vegetable oil, (for frying)

Combine the cornmeal, flour, sugar, baking powder, salt, and cayenne pepper in a large mixing bowl.

In a separate bowl, whisk together the egg, and buttermilk. Add to the dry ingredients along with the grated onion and its juices, stirring until combined.

Heat 2 inches of oil over medium-high heat in a large cast iron skillet or dutch oven until it reaches 375°F on a digital thermometer. When hot, carefully use two spoons to drop tablespoonfuls of batter into the hot oil, using the back of one spoon to push the batter in one at a time. Work in batches so as not to overcrowd the pan. Fry for 2-3 minutes, turning partway through with a wire spatula, until the hush puppies are golden brown.

Remove the hush puppies from the oil and transfer to a wire rack set over a baking sheet lined with paper towels. Keep an eye on the oil temperature while frying so that it stays consistent, adjusting the heat up or down as necessary.

These hush puppies were outstanding! Now because I have a problem following recipes🤣🫣😜I will admit I added to the smallest batch I prepared, an additional 1/2 teaspoon of salt @ one jalapeño minus the seeds for additional flavor. An extra tablespoon of sugar can also enrich the flavor. These were thoroughly enjoyed.
