2 cups self-rising cornmeal mix
1/4 cup sliced scallion
1 red jalapeno chile, seeded and minced
2 teaspoons minced garlic
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
3/4 cup lager beer
1/2 cup buttermilk
1 egg
1/4 cup canola oil
2 catfish fillets, cut into 2-inch pieces (8 oz. each)
1/2 cup fish-fry mix (we use Zatarain's)
1/2 cup ketchup
1/3 cup mayonnaise
2 tablespoons dill pickle relish
1/2 teaspoon prepared horseradish

Steps:

Preheat oven to 450°.
Combine the cornmeal mix, scallions, jalapeno, garlic, salt, and pepper in a bowl.
Whisk together the beer, buttermilk, and egg; stir into cornmeal mixture; set aside.
Heat oil in a 10-inch cast-iron skillet until it shimmers.
Dredge each fish piece in fish-fry mix, then fry, on only one side, in hot oil, 2 minutes.
Pour hush puppy batter over fish in skillet.
Transfer skillet to oven and bake until hush puppy is golden and a toothpick inserted in the center comes out clean, about 15 minutes.
Let meal rest 5 minutes, then loosen edges with a knife.
Top skillet with a serving plate, and flip both the plate and skillet over together quickly (Use caution, skillet will still be very hot).
Cut into wedges and serve with sauce.
Sauce: whisk together ketchup, mayonnaise, relish, and horseradish in a small bowl.

Time 1h7m

Yield 20 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 gallon water
1/3 cup sugar
1/4 cup salt
2 tablespoons granulated garlic
3 tablespoons granulated onion
4 lbs yellow cornmeal
oil (for frying)

Steps:

Place one gallon of water in a large pot.
Add the sugar,slat, garlic and onion.
Bring to a rolling boil.
Turn the flame off and stir in the corn meal. The mush will be very stiff, so stiff that it is difficult to stir.
When mixed, scrape the mush out in a dishpan, flatten out on top and allow to cool.
Later, if a skin has formed on top, peel it off and discard it.
Knead the mush until pliable and easy to work with.
Pinch off whatever size pieces you want the hugh puppies to be and form them by hand just as you would do with modeling clay. Make each hush puppy out of a rope or tube you've rolled between your palms. I like mine the length of about 4 inches, and the diameter of a kindergartner's chunky pencil.
Deep fry at 350 degrees until they are hard on the outside.
Do not put too many in the fryer at once because the oil will get too cool.
Prep time includes the time for the mush to cool.
