Ingredients
- vegetable oil for frying
- 2 cups self-rising white cornmeal mix
- 1 cup yellow cornmeal
- 1 1/2 cups buttermilk
- 2 teaspoons sugar
- 1 1/2 teaspoons white onion chopped
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
Instructions
- Pour enough oil into a deep fryer or heavy bottomed pot so the depth is 3 to 4 inches.
