When folks would have a fish fry my favorite thing was the trimmings.Crinkle cut fries,onion rings,slaw and hush puppies.
My mouth waters just thinking of those golden brown fried just right hush puppies.
Years ago when working the evening shift at the water filter plant getting home after midnight,starving and not being the best of a cook this would be my favorite meal.Take a couple taters,peel and slice into home fries.While they where in the pan a frying the hush puppies would be made.Corn meal,chopped up onion,dab of ketchup pour in some buttermilk and mix all ingredients well.Roll out the hush puppies into balls and when the taters where done drop them in the boiling Wesson oil.While the frying is going on slice some cabbage and mix in some mayo and sprinkle with black pepper for the slaw.I found it easier to buy frozen onion rings and keep them till needed rather than making home made ones.
There you have it.One of my all time favorite comfort foods.Good,easy and fills you up.
