grandma's hushpuppies

I don't think I've ever actually dropped something into boiling oil, and I'm not sure when I will get around to trying this recipe, but Grandma certainly made these and they are delicious.

• 1 c cornmeal
• 1/2 c flour
• 1 egg
• 1/2 c chopped onions
• 1/2 to 2 c buttermilk

1. Combine ingredients, adding buttermilk until the mixture is thick and lumpy but creamy.
2. Let set in refrigerator for 20 minutes.
3. Heat oil on stovetop, and drop spoonfuls into oil. Drain before serving.
