Irresistible zesty, spicy corn fritters with a sweet chili dipping sauce.
What would be your dream diet?
If you asked me at dinner tonight, I would have to say, spicy corn fritters.
Elise Bauer
Yep, the corn fritter diet.
(Haven’t you heard of it?)
Just pile ‘em on.
Elise Bauer
Cook on medium heat, stirring with a wooden spoon, until sugar dissolves.
Remove from heat and let cool.
The sauce should continue to thicken as it cools.
Elise Bauer
Add egg, lemon juice and water.
Stir vigorously with a wooden spoon until smooth.
Add the corn, scallions, and cilantro.
Elise Bauer
Stir until just combined.
Heat a large frying pan on medium high heat.
Add enough oil to generously coat the bottom of the pan.
Elise Bauer
Leave about 1/2 inch between the fritters in the pan.
Add oil as needed to keep the bottom of the pan well coated.
Note that the fritters will likely splatter a bit as you are cooking.
Elise Bauer
So, either use a screen splatter guard, or wear long sleeved clothes while you cook.
Serve immediately with the sweet chili dipping sauce.
