Ingredients

• 2 cups fresh corn kernels (or canned)
• 1 cup all-purpose flour
• 0.25 cup cornmeal (optional, for extra texture)
• 2 teaspoons baking powder
• 1 tablespoon granulated sugar
• 0.5 teaspoon salt
• 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
• 1 piece large egg
• 0.5 cup whole milk
• 2 tablespoons unsalted butter, melted
• 0.5 cup vegetable oil (for frying)
• 2 tablespoons chopped green onions (optional, for garnish)

Directions

Step 1

If using fresh corn, cut the kernels off the cobs. If using canned corn, drain it well. Set aside.

Step 2

In a large mixing bowl, combine the all-purpose flour, cornmeal (if using), baking powder, sugar, salt, and black pepper.

Step 3

In a separate bowl, whisk together the egg, milk, and melted butter until smooth.

Step 4

Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and stir until just combined. Avoid overmixing.

Step 5

Gently fold in the corn kernels until evenly distributed throughout the batter.

Step 6

Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Make sure the oil is hot enough by dropping a small amount of batter into it; it should sizzle immediately.

Step 7

Using a scoop or spoon, drop 2-3 tablespoons of batter per fritter into the skillet, leaving space between each fritter.

Step 8

Fry the fritters for 2-3 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and cooked through. Adjust the heat as needed to prevent burning.

Step 9

Transfer the cooked fritters to a plate lined with paper towels to drain any excess oil.

Step 10

Repeat with the remaining batter until all the fritters are cooked.

Step 11

Serve warm, garnished with chopped green onions if desired. Enjoy Uncle Dobo's crispy and flavorful corn fritters with your favorite dipping sauce or as-is!
