Coconut Dipping Sauce

Method

Preparation of Maïs Froufrou

  1. 1

    Prepare the Vegetables

    Finely chop the onion and tri-color bell peppers. In a large mixing bowl, combine sweet corn, chopped onion, and bell peppers.

  2. 2

    Mix the Batter

    In another bowl, mix together the all-purpose flour, cornstarch, Akadi spice blend, and water until a smooth batter forms.

  3. 3

    Combine Ingredients

    Add the batter to the corn and vegetable mixture. Mix until well combined.

  4. 4

    Heat the Oil

    In a large frying pan, heat vegetable oil over medium-high heat.

  5. 5

    Fry the Mixture

    Spoon the corn mixture into the hot oil, flattening them slightly with a spatula. Fry until golden brown and crispy, about 3-4 minutes per side.

  6. 6

    Drain Excess Oil

    Remove the fried fritters from the oil and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.

Preparation of Coconut Dipping Sauce

  1. 7

    Mix the Dipping Sauce

    In a small bowl, whisk together coconut milk, lime juice, sugar, and salt until well combined.
