Ingredients:
- 3 cups (450g) sweet corn kernels
- 2 scallions (30g), thinly sliced
- 1/4 cup (15g) fresh parsley, chopped
- 1/2 cup (65g) all-purpose flour
- 1/4 cup (40g) yellow cornmeal
- 1 tsp (5g) baking powder
- 1/2 tsp (3g) garlic powder
- 1/4 tsp (1g) cayenne pepper
- 1/2 tsp (3g) kosher salt
- 1/4 tsp (1g) black pepper
- 1 large (50g) egg, beaten
- 1/3 cup (80ml) low-fat milk
- 3 tbsp (42g) avocado oil
Instructions:
- In a large bowl, combine the corn kernels, sliced scallions, and chopped parsley.
- In a separate small bowl, whisk together the flour, cornmeal, baking powder, garlic powder, cayenne, salt, and pepper.
- Pour the dry ingredients over the corn, then stir in the beaten egg and milk until just combined; do not overmix.
- Heat the avocado oil in a 12-inch skillet over medium-high heat until it shimmers (about 3 minutes).
- Scoop approximately 2 tablespoons of batter per fritter into the pan, flattening them slightly with the back of the spoon.
- Cook for 3–4 minutes per side without moving them, until the edges are golden brown and a mahogany-colored crust forms.
- Flip and cook for another 3 minutes until both sides are crisp and the center is set.
