SOUTHERN FRIED CORN RECIPE - (4.5/5)



Southern Fried Corn Recipe - (4.5/5) image

Provided by Becky Jo

Number Of Ingredients 7

6 to 8 ears fresh corn (sweet corn is best)
1 tablespoon bacon drippings
2 tablespoons butter
1/2 cup milk
1 tablespoon cornstarch
1 teaspoon salt
1/4 teaspoon black pepper

Steps:

  • Shuck and silk your corn. Make sure to remove all of the silks and then with a sharp knife cut the corn off into a bowl. Once the kernels are all cut off, take your knife and scrape down the cob to remove any juice that is left in it. This is what makes the corn creamy, so don't skip this step. In a skillet heat together the bacon drippings and the butter. If you don't understand where you get the bacon drippings, because we haven't cooked any bacon, you might not be ready for this recipe. But if you are not a bacon grease collector, like most good southern cooks are, cook about five or six pieces of bacon and use the drippings for this corn. Add the corn and let it cook on medium heat for about 15 minutes. Mix the cornstarch and the 1/2 cup cold milk until smooth. Pour that mixture into the corn and bring it up to a bubble. Stir and cook just until it thickens. Add the salt and pepper and stir again and serve.

Tips:

  • Use fresh corn on the cob for the best flavor.
  • If you don't have fresh corn, you can use frozen corn kernels. Just thaw them before using.
  • Be sure to dry the corn well before frying it. This will help it to get crispy.
  • Use a heavy-bottomed skillet or Dutch oven for frying the corn. This will help to prevent it from burning.
  • Heat the oil to a medium-high temperature before adding the corn. This will help to create a crispy crust.
  • Don't overcrowd the skillet or Dutch oven when frying the corn. This will cause it to steam instead of fry.
  • Fry the corn until it is golden brown and crispy. This should take about 5-7 minutes.
  • Season the corn with salt, pepper, and your favorite seasonings. Some popular options include garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, and cayenne pepper.
  • Serve the corn hot with your favorite dipping sauce.

Conclusion:

Southern fried corn is a delicious and easy-to-make side dish that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. It is a great way to use up fresh corn on the cob, and it can also be made with frozen corn kernels. With just a few simple ingredients, you can make a batch of fried corn that is sure to be a hit at your next gathering.
