How to easily remove corn from the cob –
This method is fool proof! Â No messy corn kernals all over the floor and counter! Â Plus if you want to, you just leave them in the bowl and add the corn fritter ingredients. Â One bowl easy!
Simply place a small bowl or ramiken upside down in a large bowl. Â Stand the corn up on it and using a serrated knife slice the corn right into the bowl.Â
Give the corn fritter mixture a stir and let it rest for a few minutes while you heat the oil in the pan. Â You can do this inside or out on the BBQ for a super fun summer snack! Â We use about 1/8 inch of oil. Â It doesn’t take that much to brown these up.
After heating the oil drop a heaping tablespoon into the pan. Â Be careful of splatters! Â I use two spoons to help shape the fritters. Â Perfection is not required here…we will call them ‘rustic’ shapes :).
Cook for 2-3 minutes and flip. Â Remove to a paper towel lined plate.
 How to Serve Corn Fritters –
- Serve as a side dish or appetizer. Â Make them smaller if you wish.
- Top with sour cream, more green onion or bits of bacon.
- Store them in sealed container in the refrigerator for up to 3 days.
- Reheat in the oven or air fryer to crisp them back up!
