1 1/2 cups of buttermilk cornmeal mix
1/2 cup self rising flour
1 tablespoon sugar
1 jalapeño, seeded and finely chopped
1/3 cup of finely chopped onion
1/2 cup corn, drained (I use while kernel in a can)
1 egg
1/2 cup milk
A cast iron skillet filled half way up with hot vegetable or canola oil

Steps:

Mix the dry ingredients then add the pepper, onion and corn. Make a well in the center of the center of the bowl and add the milk and egg. Mix just until well blended. It's easi if you use your hands. Form into small balls and drop into hot oil. Turn 3-4 times until lightly browned on all sides. Place in a bowl lined with a towel to absorb the excess oil. The exact cooking time and number of hush puppies the recipe yields will depend on the size of the hush puppies.
