  5. Shape the dough into a long roll, about 2-3 inches wide; cut into 18 even pieces.
  6. Shape each piece in to a small ball and then flatten into 1 1/2 inch thick disk.
  7. Place a large skillet over medium heat. Add enough oil to coat the bottom of the pan. When the oil is hot, fry the johnny cakes in batches for 2-3 min per side, or until puffed and golden. Dry on paper towels and serve.
