We call these "gritters" in our house, but I did not want to confuse you, I just want to introduce you to something delicious! I'm not a huge fan of eating grits with a spoon from a bowl, but I do love these rolled up versions. These fritters are super creamy on the inside and crispy on the outside. They are awesome little snacks, and great appetizers for parties.

Prep Time: 20 minutes plus chill time

Cook Time: 15 minutes

Total Time: 35 minutes

Yield: 6-8 servings

Ingredients:

• 1 cup quick cooking grits
• 4 cups milk or water
• 1 tsp salt
• 1 cup shredded cheese
• 5 slices bacon, cooked and crumbled
• 2 green onions, minced
• 1/2 cup corn kernels
• 1/4 tsp black pepper
• 1/4 tsp chili powder
• 1/2 tsp garlic powder
• 2 eggs
• 3 cups Panko crumbs
• Vegetable oil

 

Steps:

1. Cook grits to package directions with milk or water and 1 teaspoon of salt. Remove from heat and stir in cheese, bacon, green onions, corn, black peppers, chili powder, and garlic powder.

 
2. Pour into a large lightly greased baking pan, cover with plastic wrap, and chill in fridge at least 1 hour.

3. Whisk eggs in a bowl. Stir in a few tablespoons of water.

 
4. Place eggs next to a bowl of Panko crumbs so you have your dunking station ready.

 
5. Roll some of the grits mixture into a little ball.

 
6. Submerge ball into egg, letting any excess drip off, then roll in Panko crumbs. Repeat.

7. Add a couple inches of oil to a deep skillet and bring to 350 F. Fry the balls in small batches for a few minutes, until golden brown all over.

 
8. Allow fritters to drain on a paper towel lined plate. Serve warm. My family likes this as is, I like mine with a simple spicy-sweet sauce made of Sriracha, mayonnaise, and honey.
