Ingredients

Scale
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1 cup fresh or frozen sweet corn kernels, thawed
  • 1/2 cup milk
  • 1 large egg
  • 2 tablespoons melted butter
  • Vegetable oil, for frying
  • For the Spicy Aioli:
  • 1/2 cup mayonnaise
  • 1 tablespoon lime juice
  • 1 teaspoon hot sauce (adjust to your spice preference)
  • 1 clove garlic, minced
  • Pinch of salt

Instructions

  1. Whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, and pepper in a medium bowl.
  2. In a separate bowl, whisk the milk, egg, and melted butter until combined.
  3. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients. Mix gently until just combined; do not overmix.
  4. Fold in the sweet corn kernels.
  5. Heat about 1 inch of vegetable oil in a heavy-bottomed skillet over medium-high heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C).
  6. Carefully drop heaping tablespoons of batter into the hot oil, being careful not to crowd the pan.
  7. Fry for 2 to 3 minutes per side, turning once, until the fritters are golden brown and cooked through.
  8. Remove the fritters with a slotted spoon and drain them on a paper towel-lined plate.
  9. While the fritters cool slightly, prepare the aioli. Combine the mayonnaise, lime juice, hot sauce, minced garlic, and a pinch of salt in a small bowl. Stir well.
  10. Serve the warm sweet corn fritters immediately with the spicy aioli for dipping.

Notes

  • For extra flavor, add one finely chopped jalapeño to the fritter batter.
  • If you prefer a milder aioli, reduce the amount of hot sauce.
  • Ensure your oil temperature is correct for the best crispy texture.
