Cook Time:
Just like mom used to make! Try this either hot from the pan as is or with butter and syrup. Posted in response to a recipe request. From the Houston Chronicle. Cooking time approximate.
Directions:
1
Mix together the cornmeal, flour, salt and sugar.
2
Stir in the egg.
3
Slowly add enough boiling water until you have a thick batter that you can form into patties.
4
Form into patties and fry in hot oil in a heavy skillet until golden brown on both sides.
5
Serve immediately.
Ratings & Reviews:
This is going to be my go-to cornbread for making dressing - crumbly and well-seasoned. Thanks for the posting!

I love this recipe. It's chewy on the inside with a crispy skin on the outside. The only problem I have with it is it calls for way too much salt for my taste. I usually use half as much as it calls for (but then again, my family doesn't eat much salt, so maybe I just have a low tolerance for it.) Still, incredible recipe.
