Tips:
- Use fresh corn kernels for the best flavor and texture.
- If you don't have fresh corn kernels, you can use frozen or canned corn, but be sure to drain them well before using.
- Be sure to heat your oil to the correct temperature before frying the fritters. If the oil is too hot, the fritters will brown too quickly and not cook through. If the oil is not hot enough, the fritters will absorb too much oil and be greasy.
- Don't overcrowd the pan when frying the fritters. This will cause the oil temperature to drop and the fritters will not cook evenly.
- Serve the fritters hot with your favorite dipping sauce.
