Ingredients
- 200 grams Corn kernels (fresh or frozen, thawed)
- 60 grams All-purpose flour
- 1 large Egg
- 60 ml Milk (low-fat)
- 2 stalks Green onions (finely chopped)
- 1 teaspoon Baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
- 2 tablespoons Olive oil (for frying)
- 2 tablespoons Light sour cream (optional, for serving)
- 1 tablespoon Fresh parsley (optional, for garnish)
Directions
Step 1
In a large mixing bowl, combine the corn kernels, chopped green onions, and parsley (if using).
Step 2
In another bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, and black pepper.
Step 3
Beat the egg and milk together in a small bowl, then pour into the dry ingredients. Mix until just combined.
Step 4
Add the wet mixture to the corn and green onions. Stir gently until everything is evenly incorporated. Be careful not to overmix.
Step 5
Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a non-stick frying pan over medium heat.
Step 6
Scoop 2 tablespoons of the batter for each fritter into the pan. Flatten slightly with the back of the spoon to form round patties.
Step 7
Cook for about 2-3 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and cooked through. Repeat with the remaining batter, adding more olive oil to the pan as needed.
Step 8
Transfer the cooked fritters to a plate lined with paper towels to absorb any excess oil.
Step 9
Serve warm with a dollop of light sour cream on top and garnish with fresh parsley if desired.
