Ingredients
2 cups fresh corn kernels (you can also use canned or frozen corn, drained (300 g))
1 cup all purpose flour (adjust as needed (120 g))
3 tablespoons cornstarch
1 cup water (adjust as needed (240 ml))
2 green onions (finely chopped)
2 cloves garlic (minced)
1 teaspoon ground coriander
1 teaspoon turmeric powder
Salt and pepper to taste
Oil for frying
Directions
Step 1
For the Batter:
Step 1
In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour and cornstarch. Add the water gradually while stirring until you get a thick batter. The batter should be thick enough to coat the corn and other ingredients, but not too runny.
Step 2
Add the corn kernels, green onions, minced garlic, ground coriander, turmeric powder, salt, and pepper. Mix well until all ingredients are evenly coated with the batter.
Step 3
For the Oil:
Step 1
In a large skillet or frying pan, heat enough oil over medium heat to deep-fry the fritters. The oil should be around 350°F (175°C).
Step 2
For the Fritters:
Step 1
Drop spoonfuls of the batter into the hot oil, flattening them slightly with the back of the spoon. Do not overcrowd the pan; fry in batches if necessary.
Step 2
Fry until golden brown and crispy, about 3-4 minutes on each side. Use a slotted spoon to transfer the fritters to a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess oil.
Step 3
For the Serving:
Step 1
Serve the Corn Fritters hot with your favorite dipping sauce, such as sweet chili sauce or sambal.
