Ingredients:
- 1 beaten egg
- 1/2 cup buttermilk (you can use sour
cream instead)
- 1/4 cup finely chopped green onions
- 1/4 cup finely chopped jalapeno
- 1/4 cup creamed corn
- 1/4 cup grated cheddar cheese
- 1 clove garlic minced or pressed
- 1 T water
- 1 cup cornmeal mix (or more if needed)
- If you don't have cornmeal mix
(3/4 c corn meal + 1/4 flour + 1
tsp baking powder + 1/4 tsp
baking soda + 1/8 tsp salt)
- 2 T sugar (optional)
- 2 to 4 cups of cooking oil
In a medium-sized mixing bowl, stir cornmeal mix (or combine cornmeal, flour, baking powder, baking soda, and
salt), egg buttermilk, onions, and water. Add green onions, jalapenos, corn, and cheese (sugar if you want). Mix
well. If batter is too runny, add more cornmeal mix.
Heat oil in deep fat fryer or in a deep iron skillet on medium-high heat on the stove. Test. Drop spoonfuls into hot
oil. Turn if oil is not deep. Remove when golden brown. Note: Cheese will darken before the rest.
