"River Road Recipes", published by the Junior League of Baton Rouge, La. The key to this recipe is
the green onion tops.
Sift dry ingredients into bowl. Beat egg, add milk, and add this to cornmeal mixture. Add onion
and paprika. Drop by spoonful in hot deep fat (375F) and fry until brown. This makes
approximately two dozen
Note: I would scald the corn meal with 1/2 cup boiling water, let it sit 5 minutes and proceed and
reduce milk to 1/2 cup. Nita Drain in a wire basket.
