POTATO PUPPIES

Steps:

• Pour oil into a large pot to a depth of 2 inches. Heat over medium heat until the oil registers 340 to 350 degrees F on a deep-frying thermometer.
• In a saucepan, combine the milk, water, butter and a generous pinch of salt. Bring to a simmer over medium heat, allowing the butter to melt completely. Add the cayenne to the flour and, all at once, pour the mixture into the saucepan. Cook, stirring with a wooden spoon, until the "paste" pulls away from the pan, about 2 minutes. Continue stirring for another 2 minutes to allow the moisture to evaporate.
• Off the heat, add the mashed potatoes to the saucepan. Return to the heat and stir for another minute. Taste and adjust the seasoning with salt and pepper if needed.
• Remove from the heat and continue stirring. Whisk the eggs together and, while stirring, add the eggs to the mashed potato mixture. Continue stirring until a smooth paste is formed. Stir in the Parmesan and season with pepper.
• Transfer the mixture to a large pastry bag fitted with a large open star tip. In batches, pipe inch-long dollops of the choux paste into the hot oil, using a knife or the side of the pan to cut the paste. Fry until the fritters are deep golden brown all over, 3 to 4 minutes. Remove with a slotted spoon and turn out onto a paper towel-lined plate.

BUFFALO PUPPIES

Steps:

• Combine the cream cheese, mayonnaise and blue cheese in a small saucepan. Cook over medium heat until smooth, stirring frequently, about 3 minutes. Set aside to cool slightly, about 5 minutes, and then stir in the celery.
• Heat the butter in a large skillet over medium heat until melted. Add the hot dogs and cook until heated through, stirring occasionally, 5 minutes. Stir in the hot sauce and cook until the hot dogs are coated, 1 to 2 minutes. Slice vertically through each potato bun, about halfway through so it resembles a top-split hot dog bun, and place 2 buffalo dogs in each. Top with 1 to 2 teaspoons of the blue cheese sauce, a drizzle of hot sauce (as spicy as you like it), some red onions and crushed blue chips.
• Serve the sliders with any extra blue cheese sauce and celery sticks on the side for dipping.

DUBBY'S PUPPIES

Steps:

• Mix all dry ingredients and add enough boiling water to make a thick dough. Add the egg, chopped oysters, peppers and onions and mix thoroughly. Form this mixture into small patties. Dip into egg whites, then roll in panko bread crumbs to coat.
• Heat oil to 350 degrees F in deep fat fryer, or a large pot, and drop in hushpuppies. Fry until golden and remove with a slotted spoon. Drain on paper towels and serve immediately.

DIXIE FRIED BLUE CRAB AND CORN HUSH PUPPIES

Steps:

• Place the crabmeat on a paper towel and cover with another paper towel. Press lightly to remove any excess liquid. Combine the cornmeal, flour, baking powder, salt and brown sugar in a medium bowl until they are incorporated evenly.
• Next, add your buttermilk and egg and stir completely into mixture to loosen it up. Spoon in your crab meat and mix completely. Follow this with the corn, green onion, jalapenos and garlic. Incorporate the Parmesan and bacon (you can increase the amounts of Parmesan and bacon if you like, and want that to be more of a dominant flavor over the crab). Cover bowl with cling wrap and refrigerate for an hour to congeal for frying.
• Heat 5 inches canola oil to fry in a medium pot to 350 degrees F.
• Scoop 1-ounce balls from the hush puppy mixture and fry in batches, stirring and prodding occasionally, until evenly golden, 3 to 5 minutes. Remove to a paper towel to blot any excess oil.
