2 c water
2 ts butter
: Salt and pepper
1/2 c grits
1/4 c grated Cheddar cheese
: Flour, — for dredging
2 TB to 4 TB vegetable oil
Oil a large sheet pan. In a saucepan bring water and butter, seasoned
with salt and pepper, to a boil. Reduce heat to medium and whisk in
grits. Cook, stirring constantly, 5 minutes. Remove from heat and
stir in cheese. Pour grits onto sheet pan, spreading them evenly.
Cool and cut into cakes with a 2 1/2- to 3-inch biscuit cutter.
In a large preferably nonstick skillet, heat enough oil to coat
bottom of pan over medium-high heat. Dredge both sides of cakes in
flour and pan-fry about 2 minutes on each side, until golden. Drain
on paper towels and keep warm before serving.
