Ingredients

Scale

Main Ingredients

  • 1 cup fresh corn kernels (or thawed and patted dry frozen corn)
  • 3/4 cup all-purpose flour (or gluten-free flour blend for gluten-free option)
  • 2 large eggs (or flax eggs for vegan alternative)
  • 1/3 cup milk (or plant-based milk for dairy-free option)
  • 2 tablespoons chopped green onions
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • Cooking oil (vegetable, canola, or sunflower oil) for frying

Instructions

  1. Prepare the Batter: In a mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, eggs, and milk until smooth, creating a thick but pourable batter that will hold the corn pieces beautifully.
  2. Add Corn and Seasonings: Fold the fresh corn kernels and chopped green onions into the batter, then season generously with salt and pepper to taste, ensuring every bite is full of flavor.
  3. Heat the Oil: Heat a shallow layer of cooking oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat until shimmering but not smoking, perfect for achieving that crispy golden crust.
  4. Fry the Fritters: Drop spoonfuls of the batter into the hot oil, pressing down slightly to flatten, and cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side until deliciously golden brown and crisp.
  5. Drain and Serve: Transfer the cooked fritters to a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess oil, then serve warm to enjoy the full crisp and tender contrast.

Notes

  • Use fresh or properly thawed frozen corn for best texture.
  • Fry in batches to avoid overcrowding and maintain oil temperature for crispiness.
  • Adjust batter thickness by adding more milk if too thick or more flour if too thin.
  • Test one fritter first to check seasoning and texture before cooking the entire batch.
  • Keep cooked fritters warm in a 200°F oven while frying the rest.
