How to cook Sweet corn fritters
-
Pound the corn
Take 2 ears of corn, peel the husks, clean the corn silk, then finely grate the corn kernels. Peel the shallots, wash them, and finely chop. Wash the green onions and finely chop them.
Add the grated corn to a mortar and pound it finely. Add 1 spoon of chopped shallots, 1 spoon of seasoning powder, 1 spoon of sugar, 1 spoon of pepper, and 5 chopped green onions. Pound vigorously from top to bottom, mixing well. Pound until the mixture thickens.
Tip: The thinner you grate the corn, the quicker it will be to pound it into a fine mixture!
-
Wrap the rice paper
Use water to moisten the rice paper, then add a portion of mashed corn to taste and roll it up into a roll about the size of a finger.
Tip:- While soaking in water, use your hand or a brush to apply a little water to avoid tearing the rice paper when rolling.
- Roll gently and a bit loosely; do not roll too tightly, as the moisture in the corn will make the spring roll easily break.
-
Fried Corn Cakes
Place a pan on the stove and add 100ml of cooking oil into the pan, wait for the oil to heat up before frying the corn cakes on low heat.
When the corn cakes are slightly golden, you can take them out to avoid burning. Drain them.
Tip:- It is recommended to fry in deep oil, the corn cakes will absorb less oil.
- You can use chopsticks; when you put them into the oil and see bubbles rising, it’s time to add the corn cakes.
- When you drop the corn cakes in, do not turn them immediately; wait until they are slightly golden. At this point, the corn cakes will be set and not easily broken like at first.
- When taking them out, place them in a basket instead of on oil-absorbent paper to keep the cakes crispier.
-
Final Product
The fried corn cakes are crispy on the outside, evenly fried until golden brown, and the inside is rich in flavor from the sweet corn, with a deliciously nutty aroma. Serve with chili sauce or a homemade dipping sauce with some greens, and you can eat them all day without getting bored!

Prepare the ingredients
After buying the corn, peel off the outer layer, rinse with water, and then grate it (you can mash it or leave it whole), squeeze out the excess water. Cut the chives or green onions into small pieces, peel the shallots, and slice thinly.
-
Mixing the corn filling
You add shredded corn, chives or green onions, and shallots into bowl, season with 1/2 teaspoon of salt, 1/2 teaspoon of sugar, 1/2 teaspoon of monosodium glutamate, 1/2 teaspoon of seasoning powder, and 1/3 teaspoon of ground pepper, then mix well and marinate for 15 minutes for the ingredients to absorb the seasoning.
-
Rolling the corn spring rolls
You briefly dip the rice paper in water, then lay it on a flat surface, add the marinated corn filling, fold the two edges and roll it up. Roll it not too tightly, but also not too loosely.
Note: Depending on whether the rice paper is thick or thin, you can dip it or just brush water on one side of the rice paper to prevent it from getting too wet.
-
Fried Corn Rolls
Heat a pan on the stove, add 200ml of cooking oil to the pan and heat over medium heat. Wait for the oil to get hot, then add the corn rolls to fry, turning them regularly to prevent burning. When they turn golden brown, remove them onto paper towels to drain.
-
Final Product
You arrange the corn rolls on a plate, served with fresh vegetables and chili garlic fish sauce to enhance the flavor of the dish and make it perfect. Each crispy corn roll blends with the sweet taste of corn that is seasoned just right, creating a delicious and appealing flavor that everyone loves.

How to choose fresh, firm corn
- To choose fresh, firm corn, you should buy ears that have a green outer husk tightly wrapped around the corn, not dried out, with soft, fresh silk, and the stalk not bruised or wilted.
- You should choose medium-sized ears with plump, evenly shaped, shiny, and straight kernels. When you squeeze the corn, it should feel moderately soft and ooze milk, indicating they are good ears, not too old or too young.
- Avoid choosing ears that are too old, with hard kernels or those that are infested, rotten, or have wilted yellow husks.
Tips for lasting crunchiness
- The rice paper should be placed in the freezer beforehand; when you need to use it, take it out and spray a little water on the surface of the rice paper, then roll it as shown.
- When you drop the corn spring rolls into the oil pan, you can use a brush to coat the outside with a layer of cooking oil, helping the spring rolls to be crunchier when fried.
- After frying for about 5 minutes on low heat, the corn filling should be cooked by now. You can turn the heat up slightly and stir continuously until you see it golden to your liking.
- You should only take out one batch of spring rolls before turning the heat down for the new batch to avoid temperature changes that may cause the spring rolls not to be crispy and delicious.
