I know what you're thinking. What the fuck is a corn fritter? It's a fritter with corn in it, dumbass.
Leave it to the south to come up with a desert with corn. Don't knock it until you've tried it
Ingredients
3-4 ears of fresh corn, or one 8 ¾ oz can whole kernel corn
Milk
1 ½ cup flour
3 teaspoons baking powder
¾ teaspoon salt
1 egg, beaten like a spoiled child
Let’s not pretend you’re going to use fresh corn, and just go right to the canned stuff. Separate the corn from the liquid in the can, but save the liquid in a measuring cup. Add enough milk to the liquid to make 1 cup of creamy milky stuff.
Mix dry ingredients together. In another bowl, mix egg, milk concoction and corn. Add liquid to the dry, and stir just until moistened throughout. Not too much, though, damn it, I’m not going to tell you again.
Drop by spoonful into freakin’ hot ass oil, and make sure you get some splatter on you while you do it, and swear. No swearing = no flavor
It tastes better with 2nd degree burns, promise.
After about a minute, flip over. Remove from oil onto paper towels, sprinkle with powdered sugar while still wet. Dip in some fresh, local honey, not that store bought crap that prolly came from China.
Don't make them too big, or they'll be burnt on the outside, and raw on the inside, and we'll all laugh at you when you're not here.
Don’t worry, the first couple are going to be under-cooked in the middle. That’s how you know you’re doing it wrong.
No photo, and no nutrition yet. Come back later to see I've still forgotten to add it.
