      Yield: 4 servings

    1/2 c  Self-rising white cornmeal
    1/2 c  Self-rising flour
      2 ts Sugar
    1/3 c  Buttermilk
      1 lg Egg
    1/3 c  Water; more as needed
      2 tb Melted fat or bacon grease
           Butter or mixed butter and
           - vegetable oil to fry

  In a bowl, mix together the dry ingredients with a
  wooden spoon. Add the buttermilk slowly. Mix in the egg,
  cutting into the yolk with the spoon's edge to help it
  mix in better. Add the water and fat or oil and stir
  well. The texture should be like thick soup, so you may
  need to add more water.

  Fry the cornbread cakes in a cast-iron skillet or on a
  flat iron griddle. Heat the skillet or griddle over
  medium heat and grease it well with the fat of your
  choice (butter is delicious, but it tends to burn unless
  you mix it with a little oil). Once the skillet is hot
  and the fat is sizzling, drop the batter from a 1/8 cup
  (2-tb) measure into the skillet, in batches if
  necessary.

  Fry the cakes until the edges are bubbling and the
  centers are set, then flip with a spatula to fry them on
  the other side until they're done. Like with pancakes,
  you can't say how long it will take, but the second side
  always cooks faster than the first. If the cakes seem
  greasy, drain them on paper towels before serving hot.
