John Wayne's Corn Dodgers - Cowboy Kent Rollins
Servings 8 - 10 corn patties
Ingredients
- 2 cups water
- 2 cups yellow cornmeal
- 2 teaspoons salt
- bacon grease
Instructions
- Add the water to a medium pot, over medium-high heat and bring to a low boil.
- Gradually stir in the cornmeal. Remove from the heat and stir in the salt. Let set until cool enough to handle. The consistency should be like play dough, where the mixture will stick together to form a ball. Add more water or cornmeal to achieve this consistency.
- Pinch off the dough into golf-ball sized balls and slightly flatten.
- Preheat a large skillet over medium-high heat. Add a thin layer of bacon grease to the skillet. Pan fry the dodgers, about 4 minutes per side, or until a slight crust forms and they are a light golden brown. Remove and place on a wire rack to cool slightly.
