Main Ingredients

  • 1 can sweet corn, drained
  • 2-3 Tbsp all-purpose flour
  • Vegetable oil for deep-frying
  • 1 handful sugar (for caramel coating)

Cooking Instructions

Step 1

First, drain the canned sweet corn thoroughly using a sieve. Place the drained corn kernels in a bowl. Add 2-3 tablespoons of all-purpose flour. Do not add any water; instead, lightly mix the corn and flour until it just comes together into a dough-like consistency. Adjust the amount of flour if needed to avoid a sticky mixture.

Step 1

Step 2

Heat a generous amount of vegetable oil in a pan over medium heat. Once the oil is hot enough, scoop spoonfuls of the corn mixture and gently shape them into small balls. Carefully drop them into the hot oil and fry until golden brown. While the corn fritters are frying, in a separate pan (or the same pan after removing the fritters), add the handful of sugar and let it melt over medium-low heat without stirring. Once the sugar melts and turns a light caramel color, add the fried corn fritters back into the pan. Quickly toss them around to coat evenly with the melted sugar. Pro Tip: Coat each fritter individually in the caramel for the best result, preventing them from sticking together.

Step 2

Step 3

Serve the Corn Paas immediately while warm for the best experience! The caramelized sugar coating creates a delightfully sweet and crispy exterior, while the inside remains moist and bursting with sweet corn flavor, reminiscent of a special treat from a high-end Chinese restaurant. If the sugar is caramelized correctly, you can pick them up by hand without any stickiness. These Corn Paas are a huge hit with children, so making them at home will surely bring smiles all around!
