Instructions

  1. In a large mixing bowl, add corn meal, baking powder, salt, sugar, and butter.
  2. Pour in half of the boiling water, and mix with a spatula.
  3. Add the rest of the boiling water, and mix well.
  4. Add shredded cheese and corn kernels. Combine everything together using your hands.
  5. Scoop out about 2 tablespoons of the mixture and shape into a ball, then flatten it out. Repeat with the rest of the mixture.
  6. In a cast-iron skillet over medium, add about 1-inch oil. Once the oil reaches 350˚F, add the uncooked pones into the pan very carefully. Don’t overcrowd the pan, and cook in batches.
  7. Cook for about 5-6 minutes or until they turn golden brown, flipping every 1-2 minutes (Make sure that your oil is between 300˚-350˚F).
  8. Remove the cooked pones to a paper towel lined plate. Serve and enjoy!
