Ingredients
Vegetable or canola oil, for frying
1/4 cup sugar
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon garlic salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper
1 1/4 cups milk
2/3 cup chopped onions
1 egg, beaten
1 1/2 cups yellow cornmeal
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
Directions
- Heat oil in a deep fryer or skillet to 375 degrees F.
- Mix together the sugar, baking powder, salt, garlic salt and pepper. Mix together the milk, onions and egg in a blender until they are a milkshake consistency
- Whisk together the 2 mixtures and let sit until bubbles begin to form, about 5 minutes.
- Mix together the cornmeal and flour and gradually whisk in the wet mixture. The batter should be thick like cookie dough.
