SHAZA'S FAVOURITE CORN FRITTERS

Steps:

• Sift the flours, baking powder & spices into a bowl.
• Cut onion into strips from top to bottom.
• Slice celery finely.
• Mix the water, egg & lemon juice, add to the flour mixture, beating till smooth. (Extra water may need to added to get correct consistency of batter).
• stir in the corn, onion and celery.
• heat vegetable oil in a frying to a depth of 1/2 - 3/4 inch.
• When oil is hot, drop large spoonfuls of mixture into the oil, spreading it with the back of a spoon to make a circle of about 3".
• Fry until the underside of the fritter is golden brown then flip over and do other side.
• Lift out and drain on absorbent paper placed on a wire rack. This helps keep the fritters crisp.
• finish them off with a liberal sprinkle of sea salt and a squeeze of lemon.
• NOTE: The rice flour is what makes these babies extra crispy! I always use frozen extra sweet corn kernels.

CORN FRITTERS CANADIAN STYLE

Steps:

• In a medium bowl, stir together the flour, baking powder, salt and pepper. Make a well in the center, and pour in the egg, milk, whole kernel corn, and cream-style corn. Mix until all ingredients are combined.
• Heat the lard in a skillet over medium-high heat. Drop tablespoon-sized dollops of batter onto the hot skillet, and fry for 2 to 3 minutes on each side, or until golden brown. Serve with butter and salt, and a cold glass of milk.
