Categories     Corn

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.

These fritters were a bit too oily for my taste. I think I'll try using a different cooking method next time.

These fritters were a bit bland for my taste. I think I'll try adding some more herbs and spices next time.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my fritters turned out flat and greasy.

Overall, I thought this recipe was pretty good. The fritters were crispy and the dip was tangy, but I think I would have liked it more if the fritters were a bit more fluffy.

These corn fritters were a bit too dry for my taste. I think I'll try adding some more milk or butter next time.
