Serves 4
habanero aioli, cilantro
In a large bowl, combine sweet corn, flour, cornmeal, chopped green onions, eggs, baking powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix until well combined.
In a deep skillet or pot, heat the vegetable oil over medium-high heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C).
Scoop about 2 tablespoons of the fritter mixture and carefully drop it into the hot oil. Fry in batches for about 3-4 minutes on each side or until golden brown. Remove with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels.
In a small bowl, mix together mayonnaise, minced habanero, garlic, lime juice, and salt. Stir in chopped cilantro and adjust seasoning to taste.
Serve the crispy corn fritters hot with a side of habanero aioli for dipping.
