Ingredients
  

  • 1/4 cup cornmeal
  • 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 tsp white sugar
  • 1/2 tsp baking powder
  • salt and pepper to taste
  • 1 large egg
  • 1/4 cup milk of choice
  • 1 cup corn kernels frozen then defrosted
  • 1 cup zucchini finely diced or shredded
  • 1/4 cup edamame
  • 2 tbsp olive oil

Instructions
 

  • In a large bowl, combine the dry ingredients (corn meal, all-purpose flour, white sugar, salt and pepper, baking powder) and whisk together.
  • Then, add your wet ingredients (egg and milk). Use a spatula to fold the mixture together until no dry spots remain.
  • Add the corn, zucchini and edamame to the batter and fold in until well combined.
  • In a large skillet over medium heat, add one tablespoon of olive oil. Once heated, add a ΒΌ cup scoop of fritter batter to the hot oil. Fry in batches of 3-4 and flip when one side is golden brown. Continue cooking until both sides are browned and crispy.
  • Once one batch is done, transfer to a paper towel lined plate. Lay out your fritters in a single layer to ensure any excess oil is absorbed. Once one batch is done, transfer to a paper towel lined plate.
  • Add another tablespoon of olive oil to the skillet to cook another batch of fritters.
  • Enjoy your fritters with a side of Thai sweet chili sauce or another dipping sauce of your choice. The fritters are best enjoyed fresh and warm.
