1 cup cornmeal
1 cup flour
1 medium onion minced
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper (less if you prefer)
1 egg beaten
3/4 cup buttermilk
3 cups vegetable oil
Mix dry ingredients and onion together. Mix in the egg and buttermilk.
This will be a rather thick mixture. Let sit for 1/2 hour. Heat oil in
a deep fryer or wok to 375o. Drop by teaspoons into deep fat. Fry
until golden brown. Drain on paper towels. Serve immediately.
You can add little minced vegetables to it. I like to add
jalapeno peppers to mine.
