CHILE SWEET CORN FRITTERS



Chile Sweet Corn Fritters image

These easy fritters celebrate the flavors of summer and can be made all year round using frozen sweet corn. They are perfect for the whole family. I like to add a little fresh chile heat to mine, but when I am making them for kids, I simply leave it out.

Time 35m

Yield 12 fritters

Number Of Ingredients 13

One 10-ounce bag frozen sweet corn, thawed (about 2 cups)
1 small red onion, finely chopped
1 fresh red chile, deseeded and finely chopped, optional
1 medium clove garlic, finely chopped
3 tablespoons finely chopped fresh parsley
1 tablespoon nutritional yeast flakes, optional (or 1 tablespoon soy sauce)
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
A scant 1/2 cup (100 ml) unsweetened almond milk
Flaky sea salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 tablespoon fresh lemon juice
Olive oil, for frying
Store-bought sweet chili sauce, warmed, for serving

Steps:

  • In a medium bowl, mix the corn, onion, chile if using, garlic, parsley and yeast flakes. Stir in the flour and baking powder. Gradually stir in the milk, mixing to combine all the ingredients. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper and stir in the lemon juice.
  • Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a large sauté pan over medium-high heat. To check the heat, drop a test piece of batter in, and you should hear a sizzle in the pan.
  • Spoon 1 tablespoon of the corn mixture into the pan for each fritter, leaving a little space between them so they don't stick together. Pat each fritter down with the back of the spoon so it is flatter and easier to cook on both sides. Fry until golden brown on the first side, about 2 minutes, then flip to brown the other side, about 2 minutes more.
  • Cook the fritters in batches, using 1 tablespoon of oil for each batch, until all the corn mixture has been cooked.
  • Serve with the warmed sweet chili sauce for dipping.

Time 1h10m

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 17

2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
2 italian frying bell peppers or 1 large poblano chile
fine sea salt & freshly ground black pepper
1/2 garlic clove
1/2 cup buttermilk
1/4 cup sour cream
1 teaspoon sugar
10 fresh basil leaves
1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice
1 tablespoon canola oil, plus 4 cups for frying
3 -4 ears corn
1 cup all-purpose flour
1 tablespoon baking powder
2 large egg whites
2/3 cup light beer
2 teaspoons chopped fresh tarragon
1 teaspoon grated lemon zest

Steps:

  • For the buttermilk dip, heat the olive oil and the frying peppers in a small skillet over medium-low heat, seasoning them with ¼ teaspoon salt. Cook the peppers slowly, turning them often, until they are tender at the stem, about 15 minutes.
  • Pinch out the pepper stems and most of the seeds, and put the peppers in a blender. Add the olive oil from the skillet and the garlic, buttermilk, sour cream, sugar, basil, lemon juice, and ½ teaspoon salt. Process until smooth. Pour into a bowl for serving. (This sauce can be made a few hours ahead and kept refrigerated.).
  • For the fritters, heat the 4 cups oil to 370°F While the oil is heating, shuck the corn, cut the kernels shallowly off the cobs, and then scrape the rest of the pulp with the back of the knife. Measure out 2 cups of kernels and pulp.
  • In a medium bowl, sift together the flour, baking powder, and 1 teaspoon salt. In a large bowl, whisk together the egg whites, beer, remaining tablespoon of canola oil, tarragon, lemon zest, and reserved corn. Add the flour mixture and whisk quickly to combine. (Don't overmix-a few lumps are okay.).
  • Working in batches, drop the fritter mixture by the teaspoonful into the hot oil. Cook until dark golden brown, about 3 minutes. Drain well on paper towels and serve with the buttermilk dip.

Tips:

  • For a crispier fritter, use a combination of all-purpose flour and cornmeal. The cornmeal will add a nice texture and flavor, while the all-purpose flour will help to bind the fritters together.
  • Be sure to drain the corn kernels well before adding them to the batter. This will help to prevent the fritters from becoming too soggy.
  • If you don't have buttermilk, you can make your own by adding 1 tablespoon of lemon juice or vinegar to 1 cup of regular milk. Let it sit for 5 minutes before using.
  • For a spicier dip, add a pinch of cayenne pepper or chopped jalapeño to the buttermilk mixture.
  • Serve the corn fritters with your favorite dipping sauce, such as salsa, guacamole, or sour cream.
