1 1/2 c. buttermilk cornmeal mix
Buttermilk, enough to bring batter to a little thicker than pancake batter
Lard, about 3/4" to 1" lard melted in frying pan

Spoon 1 to 1 1/2 tablespoons batter into hot lard four times to make 4 cakes at a time. Cook over medium to high heat. These cook fast. Stay with them and turn over when side one is brown. Very good and fast to prepare. Drain on paper towels.
