Ingredients
- 29 ounces sweet yellow corn (1 can) drained
- 2 green onions chopped
- ¼ cup cilantro chopped
- 1 tablespoon lime juice
- ¾ cup all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ¼ teaspoon black pepper
- 2 large eggs
- ¼ cup milk
- 1 ½ cups Colby jack cheese
Instructions
- Drain corn and dry it with paper towels and then place in a bowl along with the green onions, cilantro, and lime juice. Toss to combine.
- In another bowl, mix together the flour, baking powder, and spices. Add dry mix to the corn mixture and toss until it is all coated.
- Whisk the eggs and milk together and then add to the bowl of corn along with the cheese. Mix until combined evenly.
- Drizzle oil in the bottom of a large pan and heat over medium-high heat. Using a large cookie scoop or 1/4 measuring cup, spoon mixture into the pan (you can probably fit 3 in a pan if large enough). Let it cook for about 30 seconds and then lightly press down flat. Cook for 2-3 minutes until golden and then flip and cook another 2-3 minutes. Repeat with remaining batter and add additional oil as needed.
- Remove fritter from pan to a paper towel lined plate. Sprinkle with additional salt and pepper if desired. Serve garnished with sour cream.
