Steps:
- Using a chef's knife, cut the kernels from the corn into a medium bowl; you should have about 3 cups. Using the dull side of the knife, scrape the milk and pulp from the cobs into the bowl. Add egg yolk, flour, sugar, salt, and pepper. Stir to combine.
- In a clean bowl, whisk egg whites until stiff but not dry. Fold into corn mixture. Heat 2 tablespoons vegetable oil in a large cast-iron or nonstick skillet over medium-high heat.
- Drop spoonfuls of batter into the oil, spaced a few inches apart. Cook until golden on the bottom, 1 to 2 minutes. Using a spatula, turn fritter over, and cook until golden on the other side, 1 to 2 minutes more. Repeat the process with the remaining batter, using the remaining oil for pan. Serve immediately.
CORN FRITTERS

Steps:
- Combine water and 1/4 cup oil in a small bowl. Whisk together flour and salt in a large bowl, then add liquid in a slow stream, whisking until combined well. Whisk in yolk until smooth.
- Beat egg white in another small bowl with cleaned whisk or an electric mixer until soft peaks form, then fold into batter. Let batter stand at room temperature 1 hour.
- Cut corn kernels from cobs using a large knife without cutting very deeply into cobs, then, working in a shallow dish, scrape cobs with back of knife to release remaining kernels and liquid. Gently stir kernels with liquid into batter.
- Put oven rack in middle position and preheat oven to 200°F.
- Heat remaining 3 3/4 cups oil with garlic in a 12-inch heavy skillet (about 1 inch deep) over moderately high heat until thermometer registers 375°F. Remove garlic when golden.
- Fry heaping tablespoons of batter in batches of 6 or 7 in hot oil, without turning, until fritters are deep golden, about 4 minutes. Return oil to 375°F and skim out any bits of batter between batches. Transfer fritters to paper towels with tongs to drain, then transfer to a shallow baking pan and keep warm in oven. Season with salt before serving.

Tips:
- Use fresh corn kernels. Fresh corn kernels will give your fritters the best flavor and texture. If you can't find fresh corn kernels, you can use frozen corn kernels, but be sure to thaw them before using.
- Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing the batter will make your fritters tough. Mix the batter just until the ingredients are combined.
- Cook the fritters over medium heat. Cooking the fritters over medium heat will help them cook evenly without burning.
- Serve the fritters hot. Corn fritters are best served hot, right out of the pan. You can serve them with maple syrup, butter, or your favorite dipping sauce.
Conclusion:
Corn fritters are a delicious and easy-to-make breakfast, lunch, or dinner side dish. They're perfect for using up leftover corn kernels, and they can be dressed up or down depending on your taste.
