CORN FRITTERS
Steps:
- Mash the corn kernels in a large bowl using a potato masher or a mojito muddler until most corn kernels are broken and some juice comes out. You can also pulse the corn in a food processor for a few seconds just to break them - be careful not to over-process and turn them into creamed corn.
- Add the rest of the ingredients (jalapeno through salt) and mix well. I just used the same mojito muddler for mixing everything together - no need to get a whisk or another utensil dirty!
- Heat 1-2 tablespoons of olive oil in a pan. Use a heaping tablespoon or a melon baller to add the corn batter to the pan. Cook for about 3 minutes over medium heat, or until golden brown. Carefully flip and cook for another 3 minutes, or until the corn fritters are golden brown and cooked through.Serve with some fresh cilantro and a squeeze of lime juice.

Steps:
- Beat egg whites in a glass or metal bowl until stiff peaks form. Lift your beater or whisk straight up: the egg whites will form sharp peaks.
- Mix corn, egg yolks, flour, salt, and red pepper together in a large bowl; fold beaten egg whites into the corn mixture.
- Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Working in batches, drop corn mixture into hot oil by the tablespoonful in several spots without crowding the pan; cook until browned and set, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Repeat with remaining batter.

Tips:
- Use fresh corn kernels. Fresh corn kernels have a sweeter flavor than frozen or canned corn kernels. If you don't have fresh corn kernels, you can use frozen or canned corn kernels, but be sure to thaw them before using.
- Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing the batter will make the fritters tough. Mix the batter just until the ingredients are combined.
- Use a well-seasoned cast iron skillet. A well-seasoned cast iron skillet will help to prevent the fritters from sticking. If you don't have a cast iron skillet, you can use a nonstick skillet.
- Cook the fritters over medium heat. Cooking the fritters over medium heat will help to prevent them from burning. Be sure to flip the fritters halfway through cooking so that they cook evenly.
- Serve the fritters hot. Corn fritters are best served hot. You can serve them with a variety of dipping sauces, such as ketchup, barbecue sauce, or sour cream.
Conclusion:
Corn fritters are a delicious and easy-to-make side dish. They are perfect for any occasion, from a casual weeknight dinner to a special holiday meal. With just a few simple ingredients, you can make a batch of corn fritters that the whole family will love. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy side dish, give corn fritters a try.
