For the Corn Fritters

Method

Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    Prepare the Batter

    In a large bowl, combine the fresh corn kernels, flour, baking powder, cayenne pepper, salt, and black pepper. Mix well.

  2. 2

    Add Wet Ingredients

    In a separate bowl, whisk together the egg and milk. Add the wet mixture to the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Fold in the chopped green onions.

  3. 3

    Heat the Oil

    In a large skillet, heat the vegetable oil over medium heat until hot.

  4. 4

    Fry the Fritters

    Drop spoonfuls of the corn batter into the hot oil, flattening them slightly. Fry for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and crispy.

  5. 5

    Drain and Serve

    Remove the fritters from the oil and drain on paper towels. Serve warm with Spicy Yellowbird Red Jalapeño Crema, crumbled queso fresco, and shaved jalapeños.
