Ingredients for Crispy Corn Fritters For 2 people
Sweet corn 5 ears Shallots 5 bulbs Green onions 2 stalks Cooking oil 100 ml Common spices A little (salt/ sugar/ ground pepper)
How to choose fresh and delicious corn
- Delicious corn has a slender shape, plump and shiny kernels, and is uniform. When pressed, the kernels feel slightly soft and have white milk flowing out, indicating that the corn is just right, not too young and not too old.
- Choose ears of corn with fresh green husks tightly wrapping the ear and the corn silk not dried out; these are freshly harvested ears that are sweeter.
- Avoid buying ears of corn with dry husks and silk, oversized, hard kernels, or signs of worm damage; these are old corn and no longer tasty.
- To make crispy corn fritters, use glutinous corn because it has a lot of starch that provides the binding quality for the corn fritters.

How to make Crispy Corn Fritters

Prepare the ingredients
Peel the corn, remove the silk, and rinse with water to clean. Next, use a peeler to shave the corn lengthwise into a bowl.
Peeled shallots, and green onions should have their roots and old leaves removed, wash both, then cut them into small pieces on the cutting board.
-
Blend the corn
In a bowl, add the grated corn along with finely chopped green onions and shallots, then add 1/2 teaspoon of salt, 1 teaspoon of sugar, and 1 teaspoon of ground pepper. Mix well and let it sit for about 5 minutes to allow the corn to absorb the seasoning.
Next, put the corn mixture into a blender (use a small dry grinding bowl) and blend until smooth. After blending, take the corn mixture out into a bowl and mix well.
-
Fry the corn fritters
Place a pan on the stove, turn the heat to medium, heat 100ml of cooking oil, then use a spoon to scoop the blended corn mixture, gently press it to shape, and drop it into the hot oil, frying on medium-low heat.
Fry for about 3 – 5 minutes until the fritters are golden and crispy, then flip them over, frying until both sides are evenly golden. Remove them onto a plate lined with paper towels. Continue frying in this manner until all the ingredients are used up.
