Provided by Diana Rattray

Categories     Side Dish     Appetizer     Brunch     Entree

Time 1h25m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 5

5 cups water
Dash of salt (or to taste)
1 cup stone-ground grits
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
Vegetable oil (for frying)

Steps:

  • Gather the ingredients.
  • Bring the water and salt to a boil in a large, heavy saucepan. Add the grits and continue to simmer, stirring constantly, over medium heat until the grits are cooked and thick, or about 15 to 20 minutes. If too thick, add a little more boiling water, 1 spoonful at a time.
  • Pour the hot grits onto a large plate or medium baking sheet to make a layer about 3/4 inch deep. Cover and let stand to cool, then refrigerate for 30 minutes to 1 hour to chill thoroughly.
  • When the grits are cold and firm, use biscuit cutters the size of your choice to cut rounds. Or cut them into rectangular pieces with a sharp knife. The rectangles ensure the total usage of the mixture.
  • Dredge the grits pieces with flour, shaking off any excess flour. Reserve.
  • Heat about 1/2 inch of vegetable oil in a large, heavy skillet over medium-high heat. Fry the grits cakes until golden brown on both sides, about 2 1/2 minutes per side.
  • Drain on paper towels and sprinkle with salt to taste.
  • Garnish with the chives, if using, and serve hot.

FRIED CHEESE GRITS



Fried Cheese Grits image

"Fried" and "Grits" are two words that every true Southern cook uses regularly. Combine them, and you get a Southern version of New England's "Fried Cornmeal Mush" that brunch guests will love. Or, start them in the morning from leftover breakfast grits and serve them for supper. Either way, cooking them in bacon grease is...

Categories     Other Side Dishes

Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 c leftover cheese grits *or* make some grits with the following:
THE GRITS
2 c boiling salted water
2/3 c quick grits
1/2 c shredded cheese, any type
THE FRYING
1/4 c bacon grease or butter
salt and pepper

Steps:

  • 1. If you are starting from scratch, stir uncooked grits slowly into the boiling salted water over medium heat. Simmer grits 4-5 minutes until thickened.
  • 2. Stir in the grated cheese until well blended and grits are uniform in color.
  • 3. Spoon the grits into a greased square cake pan and smooth the top so it's all even. (If you are using leftover cheese grits, just press them flat into the cake pan.) Cover with foil and refrigerate overnight.
  • 4. When grits are solid and cold, press a paper towel over the top to soak up any condensation. Cut into 9 to 12 squares.
  • 5. Fry the squares in two to three batches. Heat about a third of the bacon grease or butter in a heavy skillet over medium heat (cast iron works best). Do not get the pan too hot. Also, use a spatter screen, because bacon grease really pops! Add more bacon grease for each batch.
  • 6. Fry the squares of grits for about 5 to 6 minutes per side, until lightly browned. Flip over carefully to fry the other side. Remove to a napkin-lined serving plate and sprinkle with salt and pepper.

  • Place the grits, chicken stock, water, salt, pepper and butter in a medium to large pan. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to a simmer and cover, cooking 30 minutes, stirring regularly to make sure the grits aren’t sticking to the bottom of the pan. Add the milk and continue to cook another 45 minutes, continuing to stir, increasing the frequency of stirring near the end of the cook time as the grits thicken. The grits porridge should be thick in the end, but tender and cooked completely through.
  • While the grits cook, place the oil in a pan with the garlic and onions. Cook on medium heat until the onions have softened and start to turn translucent, about 3 minutes. Add the breakfast sausage and cook until brown and no pink remains. Set aside to cool.
  • Once the grits are done cooking, removed from heat. Add the cheese, thyme and the cooked sausage, garlic and onion mixture to the grits. Stir to combine and taste (careful it will still be hot!) then add more salt and pepper to taste.
  • Lightly spray a 9 x 9 inch baking pan with cooking oil. Pour the grits into the pan and smooth out evenly. Let cool to room temperature then cover with aluminum foil and place in the fridge overnight.
