Ingredients
Directions
Bring water to a boil in a saucepan. Stir in sugar, butter, and salt; cook until sugar dissolved. Reduce heat to low; whisk in 1 cup cornmeal until smooth. Stir in remaining 1/2 cup cornmeal to make a very thick, workable dough.
Heat 3 cups vegetable oil in a deep fryer or large saucepan to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
Meanwhile, grease your hands well with 2 teaspoons vegetable oil. Scoop about 3 tablespoons cornmeal dough; roll into a ball, then shape into a 3-inch long stick about 1/2-inch wide. Repeat with remaining dough, oiling your hands as needed.
Deep fry cornmeal sticks, working in batches of 3 or 4 at a time, until golden brown. Drain on paper towels and keep warm.
Whisk mayonnaise, ketchup, and garlic salt together in a bowl until well combined. Serve cornmeal sticks with dipping sauce.
We have determined the nutritional value of oil for frying based on a retention value of 10% after cooking. The exact amount will vary depending on cooking time and temperature, ingredient density, and the specific type of oil used.
