Time 16m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 12

½ cup mayonnaise
2 teaspoons ground dried chipotle pepper
1 lime, juiced
1 large egg white
¼ cup ice water
½ teaspoon kosher salt
¼ cup cornstarch
¼ cup self-rising flour
2 ears fresh sweet white corn, kernels removed from cob

1 ½ cups flaked fresh Dungeness crab meat
1 fresh lime, cut into wedges

Steps:

  • Whisk mayonnaise, chipotle powder, and lime juice together in a mixing bowl. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate until needed for serving.
  • Whisk egg white, ice water, and salt together in a large mixing bowl until mixture is light and foamy, 1 or 2 minutes. Add cornstarch and flour; whisk together until thoroughly mixed. Batter should resemble a thin pancake batter. Stir in corn.

Tips:

  • Use fresh corn: Fresh corn will give your fritters the best flavor and texture. If you can't find fresh corn, you can use frozen corn, but be sure to thaw it completely before using.
  • Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing the batter will make your fritters tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
  • Use a hot skillet: A hot skillet will help your fritters cook evenly and prevent them from sticking.
  • Don't overcrowd the skillet: Overcrowding the skillet will prevent your fritters from cooking evenly. Cook them in batches if necessary.
  • Serve immediately: Corn fritters are best served hot out of the skillet. They can be served with a variety of dipping sauces, such as ranch dressing, ketchup, or honey mustard.
