Corn Fritter Recipe

Prep Time: 15 minutes
Cook Time: 15 minutes
Total Time: 30 minutes
Servings: 4

For the Batter

1 cup all-purpose self-raising cornmeal/semolino/ corn maize and besan
1 tablespoon sugar
1 small carrot, grated
1 small green/red chili, finely diced
1 small green chili, finely diced
6-8 curry leaves, finely shredded
handful coriander leaves, finely shredded
1 medium-large or 2 small onions, diced
1 ½ cup water

For the Filling

1 cup chicken mince
1 tablespoon ginger-garlic-green chili
1 tablespoon red chili powder
1 tablespoon coriander powder
½ tablespoon cumin powder
1 tablespoon fennel powder
1 tablespoon amchur powder
1 tablespoon green gram/moong dal
3-4 green chilies, slit lengthwise
2 tablespoon fresh coriander leaves
1 tablespoon oil

Instructions

Pour 1.5 cup water in a saucepan/vessel and add 1 tablespoon oil.
In it, add 1 cup all-purpose self-raising cornmeal. You can use any cornmeal or semolino. If your cornmeal is not self-raising then add 1 tablespoon of normal all-purpose and then to the cornmeal.
Stir and mix vigorously. Till the water is completely absorbed and starts to leave the sides of the pan.
Stir and mix for another 3-4 minutes.
Till the mixture leaves the pan completely and starts to form a ball.
See how it binds when you touch it with your finger. If it is not binding then add 1 tablespoon of water. If the mixture is too dry and not coming together, then add a little more water.
Knead the cornmeal mixture, on a flat surface, for a minute or so, till it becomes a smooth homogeneous mixture.
Add little oil to grease your hands and form small- medium- sized roundels out of the cornmeal mixture.
Keep them covered with a moist piece of muslin/ kitchen towel so that they do not become dry.
Now let's make the chicken mixture. In a pan, add the oil and chicken mince.
Sauté the mince on a high heat first, then lower the heat and cook covered for 10-12 minutes till the mince is completely done.
Remove the pan from the heat and add the ginger-garlic-green chili, red chili powder, coriander powder, cumin powder, fennel powder, and amchur powder.
Add the slit green chilies, moong dal, and mix well.
Garnish with cilantro.
Now poke your finger in the center of each corn fritter roundel and stuff it with the chicken mixture.
Seal the stuffing inside the corn fritter roundel and give it a round shape in the palms of your hands.
In a pan, add oil and heat on a medium heat.
Carefully place the chicken corn fritters in the pan and fry them on a medium heat till they are golden brown in color.
Flip them over and cook them till they are golden brown on the other side as well.
If your pan does not allow for even browning, then you can cook the chicken corn fritters by deep frying them as well.

Notes

To make the chicken corn fritters gluten-free, use gluten-free cornmeal and besan instead of all-purpose self-raising cornmeal.
You can adjust the spiciness of the chicken corn fritters by adjusting the amount of red chili powder added.
The chicken corn fritters can be served with green chutney, tomato ketchup, or any other dipping sauces of your choice.

Conclusion

These fritters are not only delicious but are easy on the budget. They are a great appetizer for any occasion, or they can be served as a main course with some fresh raita or chutney. They are a great way to use up leftover chicken, and they can be easily customized to suit your own taste. Try them out today and let me know what you think!
