Preparation / Directions:


* Note: See the “Bayou Blast - {Emeril’s Creole Seasoning}” recipe which is included in this collection. In a saucepan bring 1 cup of water to a boil, whisk in grits and butter; season with salt and pepper. Cook, stirring, just until thickened, about 3 minutes. Stir in sausage and cheese and cook 3 minutes more. Pour grits out into a buttered pie pan. Set aside to cool and firm up. Using a 2-inch biscuit cutter cut out 4 cakes. Dredge cakes in seasoned flour, dip in egg wash, then dredge in bread crumbs, patting to make crumbs adhere. Heat oil in a skillet, add grit cakes and pan fry, turning once, until browned on both sides.
