Deep Fried Hot Water Cornbread Fritters
1-1/2 cups Yellow or White Cornmeal
1/2 cup All Purpose Flour
1 teaspoon Baking Powder
1 teaspoon Salt
2 cups Boiling Water
Place water in a saucepan and bring to boil. Meanwhile place the cornmeal, flour, baking powder and salt into a heat proof bowl and whisk together. Pour the boiling water into the mixture while stirring it together. Let sit a few minutes to cook the cornmeal and cool a bit. Heat cooking oil in a deep-frying pan on medium heat. Once hot use a scooper to place several at a time. You will know the oil is hot enough when the dough begins to fry immediately after being put into the oil. Let fry 3 to 4 minutes and stir or flip them if needed. Let fry another couple of minutes. Fry 5 to 6 minutes all together to ensure the inside of the fritters are done. Drain on a rack and serve while nice and warm.
