Recipe is from my America's Best Recipes cookbook. A very different deep-fried spicy hush puppy that combines chili spices with mushrooms and jalapenos. Definitely not a low cal or carb recipe, but it does sound delish!
Ingredients:
1 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 cup yellow cornmeal
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon ground turmeric
1 teaspoon ground coriander
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1 teaspoon chili powder
2 1/2 cups fresh mushrooms, chopped
1 1/2 cups onions, chopped
1/2 cup jalapeno pepper, seeded and chopped
3/4 cup sour cream
vegetable oil
sour cream
Directions:
1. Combine first 7 ingredients in a large bowl. Add mushrooms, onion and jalapeno pepper; stir well. Add 3/4 cup sour cream; stir until dry ingredients are moistened.
2. Pour oil to a depth of 2 inches into a large Dutch oven; heat to 375 degrees. Carefully drop batter by heaping tablespoons into hot oil, cooking 5-6 fritters at a time. Cook about 3-4 minutes or until golden, turning once. Drain well on paper towels. Serve warm with additional sour cream.
