Time 15m

Number Of Ingredients 12

6 Ears of Corn (husks and silk removed)
1 cup Milk
1 Egg
3/4 cup Cornmeal
1/4 cup All Purpose Flour
2 tsp Italian Seasoning
1 tsp Onion Powder
1 tsp Garlic Powder
1 tsp Salt
1/2 tsp Pepper
1/2 tsp Paprika
Vegetable Oil for Frying

Steps:

  • Mix the milk and egg together in a shallow bowl. Then combine the flour, cornmeal and seasonings together in a separate shallow bowl.
  • Heat 1/2 inch of the vegetable oil in a large sauce pan over high heat until it has reached 350 degrees F.
  • Dip each ear of the corn in the egg and milk mixture. You can roll the corn in the mixture to get it fully coated.
  • Then roll the corn in the flour and cornmeal mixture to fully coat in this mixture.
  • Using tongs, carefully place the corn in the heated oil and cook for 2-3 minutes per side until the corn is golden brown. Watch the corn while it's frying to make sure it doesn't overcook and the oil does not bubble over the pan.
  • Then move the corn onto a plate lined with paper towels to soak up any excess oil from the frying.
  • Serve as soon as the corn is cool enough to touch and enjoy!

Tips:

  • Select Fresh Corn: Choose ears of corn with tightly packed kernels and bright green husks for the best flavor and texture.
  • Prepare Corn Properly: Remove the husks and silks from the corncobs, leaving about 1 inch of the husk at the base to protect the kernels during frying.
  • Use High-Quality Oil: Opt for a neutral-flavored oil with a high smoke point, such as vegetable, canola, or grapeseed oil, to prevent burning and ensure a crispy coating.
  • Season Generously: Don't be shy with the seasonings! Sprinkle the corncobs liberally with salt, pepper, and any other desired spices or herbs before frying.
  • Control the Frying Temperature: Maintain the oil temperature around 350°F (175°C) to ensure even cooking without burning the corn.
  • Avoid Overcrowding: Fry the corncobs in batches to prevent overcrowding and ensure they cook evenly and get a crispy crust.
  • Drain Excess Oil: After frying, place the corncobs on a paper towel-lined plate to drain any excess oil before serving.
