Corn Fritters

Directions

1. 1
   Beat the egg yolks well.
2. 2
   Add to the egg yolks the cooked corn (preferably fresh but I also use the frozen roasted corn available at Trader Joe's).
3. 3
   In a separate bowl, mix the salt and pepper and then mix in the flour.
4. 4
   Stiffly beat the egg whites and fold into your dry mixture. Then add this to the egg/corn mixture to form your fritter batter.
5. 5
   Heat 6 Tablespoons of Vegetable Oil. Drop corn mixture by spoonfuls into hot oil. Turn once and continue cooking until firm & lightly browned.
6. 6
   I make these to serve my Cilantro Lime Shrimp Dish over but they're also great as appetizers adding one or more of the following to your batter prior to cooking: red bell pepper, lump crab meat, jalapeno or diced green chilies.
