8 ingredients
2 steps

Ingredients

  • buttermilk for marinade (optional)
  • frog legs (as many as you want to eat!)

  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/4 teaspoon cayenne
  • pinch of ground clove
  • pinch of ground ginger

Directions

  1. 1
    Marinate frogs' legs overnight in buttermilk - not necessary, but a tasty and tenderizing addition.
  2. 2
    Combine cornmeal and spices in a large bowl for dredging. Remove frog legs from marinade and dredge through the corn meal mixture. Fry in small batches at 325 degrees for about 6-7 minutes. Serve with homemade ketchup (recipe also on food52).
