Ingredients
- 1 cup corn kernels (fresh or frozen)
- 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
- 2 large eggs
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 1/2 teaspoon salt
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 1/4 cup green onions, finely chopped
- 1/4 cup fresh parsley, chopped
- 1/4 cup milk
- Vegetable oil for frying
How to Make Savory Corn Fritters
- In a large mixing bowl, combine the corn kernels, flour, baking powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix well.
- In a separate bowl, whisk together the eggs and milk until smooth. Add the chopped green onions and parsley, mixing until combined.
- Pour the egg mixture into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Be careful not to overmix; a few lumps are okay.
- Heat a skillet over medium heat and add enough vegetable oil to coat the bottom of the pan.
- Once the oil is hot, drop spoonfuls of the batter into the skillet, flattening them slightly with the back of the spoon. Fry for about 3-4 minutes on each side or until golden brown and crispy.
- Remove the fritters from the skillet and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil. Repeat with the remaining batter.
- Serve warm with your choice of herb sauce or dip.
Tips for the Best Results
- Make sure the oil is hot enough before adding the fritters; this will ensure they become crispy instead of soggy.
- Do not overcrowd the skillet; fry in batches for even cooking.
- Adjust the seasoning to your taste; feel free to add a pinch of cayenne for some heat.
Easy Variations
- Add shredded cheese for extra flavor and richness.
- Incorporate other herbs like cilantro or dill to switch up the flavor profile.
- Substitute half of the corn for grated zucchini for a unique texture and taste.
What to Serve With It
- A tangy yogurt or sour cream dip.
- A fresh salsa or pico de gallo.
- A simple green salad for a light meal.
- Avocado slices or guacamole for added creaminess.
