Fritter Ingredients
- 1 can (15 oz) sweet corn, drained
- 1 cup fried chicken coating mix
Special Sauce
- 2 hard-boiled eggs, finely mashed
- 2 Tbsp sugar
- 1 Tbsp lemon juice
- 8 Tbsp mayonnaise
- 2 hard-boiled eggs, finely mashed
- 2 Tbsp sugar
- 1 Tbsp lemon juice
- 8 Tbsp mayonnaise
Cooking Instructions
Step 1
First, drain the canned sweet corn thoroughly using a sieve. It’s important to remove as much liquid as possible, as excess moisture can make the fritter batter too watery.
Step 2
Transfer the drained corn to a bowl. Add 1 cup of the fried chicken coating mix (measured with a standard paper cup). Add just a tiny splash of the corn’s liquid (enough to help the batter bind) and mix well. You want the corn kernels to be evenly coated with the mix. The key is to achieve a thick, scoopable consistency – not too runny!
Step 3
Now, let’s prepare the irresistible special sauce that elevates these fritters! Finely mash the 2 hard-boiled eggs using a fork or a masher until smooth. Then, stir in 2 tablespoons of sugar, 1 tablespoon of lemon juice, and 8 tablespoons of mayonnaise. Mix until everything is well combined. This sauce offers a delightful balance of sweetness and tanginess that cuts through the richness of the fritters.
Step 4
Heat a generous amount of cooking oil in a pan over medium heat. Once the oil is hot, carefully drop spoonfuls of the corn mixture into the pan. Fry for about 7-8 minutes, or until golden brown and crispy on all sides. Flip them occasionally to ensure even cooking. Keep an eye on the color and adjust the heat as needed to prevent burning.
Step 5
Once perfectly fried, place the corn fritters on a serving plate. Generously dollop the special sauce on top, and your incredibly delicious canned corn fritters are ready to be enjoyed! They are best served warm. These are a fantastic treat for kids or a perfect accompaniment with a cold drink.
