Ingredients
- 1 cup flour
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon sugar
- Pinch black pepper
- 1 egg
- 1/2 cup milk or cream
- 2 cups corn kernels
- 3 scallions finely sliced
- 1 Jalapeno sliced or diced
- 1/4 cup chopped cilantro
- 3 Tablespoons oil
- 1 Tablespoon butter
Notes
- Try to start with Fresh or Frozen corn only, avoid canned if possible. However if you must use canned corn, make sure to drain it well.
- Make the batter in a single bowl sing a wooden spoon, but try to blend the flour and baking powder together first before adding the remaining ingredients.
- Cook the Fritters in a hot pan with oil or butter, or both.
- Don't use a lot of batter in the pan, it will cause your fritters to be soggy.
- Wait until the edges look set and firm before attempting to flip your corn fritters so they don't break apart.
- Freeze extra corn fritters in a single layer and reheat them over the counter, oven or toaster oven for extra crispy-ness.
- Enjoy corn fritters as they are or as a side dish. Top them with different toppings or eat them plain.
