Corn Fritters

Ingredients

• 2 1/2 cups corn kernels, scraped off from the cob
• 1 1/2 cups onion, finely chopped
• 3-4 green chillies, finely chopped
• 4-5 curry leaves or 1 tbsp cilantro, finely chopped
• Turmeric powder, a pinch
• 4 tbsp all-purpose flour (maida)
• 3 tsp corn starch powder
• 2 tsp bread crumbs or semolina (rava)
• Salt to taste
• Vegetable oil for deep-frying

Preparation

1. In a mixing bowl, combine all the ingredients with just enough water to hold them together.
   
   
2. Heat oil in a frying pan. To check if the oil is hot enough, drop a little of the corn batter into the oil; if it rises to the top immediately, the oil is ready.
   
   
3. Using two tablespoons, pick up a little of the fritter batter in one, and gently slide it into the oil with the other spoon. Repeat with the remaining batter until there are enough fritters for the oil and fry until golden brown. Drain any excess oil on a paper towel. Repeat with remaining batter.
   
   
4. Serve the corn fritters hot with hot masala chai (tea), coffee or other beverage of your choice.
