That's cool. Thanx

Copied straight from Paula Deen's website:

6 cup vegetable oil
1 1/2 cup self-rising cornmeal
1/2 cup self-rising flour
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 small onion, chopped
1 cup buttermilk
1 egg, lightly beaten

Directions:
Using a large skillet, preheat oil for frying to 350 degrees.

Using a mixing bowl, stir together the cornmeal, flour, baking soda, and salt. Stir in the onion. In a small bowl, stir together the buttermilk and egg. Pour the buttermilk mixture into the dry ingredients and mix until blended. Drop the batter one teaspoon at a time into the oil. Dip the spoon in a glass of water after each hush puppy is dropped in the oil. Fry until golden brown, turning the hush puppies during the cooking process.

Yield: 35 Hush puppies
Preparation time: 20 minutes
Cooking time: 20 minutes
Ease of preparation: easy

These guys are restaurant quality or better, I've had people rave about them. Can't take the credit for mixin' up some groceries and deep fryin' em. They really are awesome!

Just like my mom used to make. Don't get any better.
For a twist, add a can of cream style corn to them mixture.
May have to cut back on the milk just alittle.
