1 c. cornmeal
1/2 c. all purpose flour
2 tsp. baking powder
1 tsp. garlic salt
1/2 tsp. salt
1/2 c. minced onion
1 egg, beaten

Combine first 5 ingredients in a mixing bowl. Add remaining ingredients; stir well. Let batter stand 5 minutes.

Carefully drop batter by level tablespoons into deep hot oil (370 degrees); cook only a few at a time, turning once. Fry 3 to 5 minutes or until hush puppies are golden brown. Drain well on paper towels. Makes about two dozen.
