👨🍳 تعليمات
- 1
In a large bowl, combine the fresh corn kernels, all-purpose flour, grated cheese, eggs, milk, baking powder, salt, and pepper.
- 2
Mix well until a thick batter forms. If the batter is too dry, add a little more milk, one tablespoon at a time, until it reaches a consistency that can be spooned into the pan.
- 3
Heat about 1/4 inch of vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
- 4
Once the oil is hot, carefully drop spoonfuls of the batter into the skillet, flattening them slightly with the back of the spoon to form fritters.
- 5
Fry for 3-4 minutes per side, until golden brown and cooked through. Work in batches, ensuring not to overcrowd the pan.
- 6
Remove the fritters from the skillet and place them on a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess oil.
- 7
Serve warm as a snack, appetizer, or side dish.
