Jane's Hushpuppies
From the kitchen of: Amy Lowe Mitchell, production manager. Before the holidays, Mother has a fish fry with hushpuppies, potatoes, and cole slaw, just for something different before we get into the turkey and stuffing and all the other usual holiday staples. We all look forward to it, especially my brother-in-law, who insists that Mother's hushpuppies are the best in the world!
Prep: 15 minutes; Cook: 6 minutes per batch.
Yield: Makes about 16 hushpuppies
