How To Make old fashion cornbread with a twist

  • 1
    Heat enough oil in a large heavy bottom skillet on high heat.
  • 2
    In a medium bowl, mix together cornmeal and salt. Stir in enough boiling hot water that the cornmeal mixture comes together enough to spoon (not too thick and not too thin.
  • 3
    When your oil is hot but,not smoking,you can either spoon your mix in the oil or shape each piece.Fry in oil about 5 minutes depending on how think the cakes only flip once.you want them to be golden and crispy.They absorb alot of oil so be sure to drain on paper towels.
