Mammys Corn Fritters Recipes

MAMIE'S CORN FRITTERS

Steps:

• Combine creamed corn, flour, milk, egg, sugar, salt, 2 teaspoons oil, baking powder, vanilla extract, and pepper in a bowl to create a thick batter. Add more flour to the mixture if it seems too thin.
• Heat oil in a large deep skillet over medium-high heat.
• Test the readiness of the oil by dropping a small drop of batter into the oil; it should immediately start to bubble and cook, indicating that the oil is hot enough. Carefully drop tablespoons of batter into the hot oil. Cook no more than 4 fritters at a time to avoid cooling the oil, which causes the fritters to absorb more oil than necessary.
• Cook fritters in the hot oil for 1 1/2 to 2 minutes. Turn over and cook until both sides are golden brown, about 1 minute more. Lift from the oil and place on a paper towel to drain. Continue with remaining batter.

• Melt butter with vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Drop batter into hot skillet with a tablespoon and flatten fritters slightly with spoon. Cook fritters until browned on both sides, about 3 minutes per side, and drain on paper towels.

CORN FRITTERS

Steps:

• In a large bowl, stir together flour, cornmeal, sugar, baking powder, 1 1/2 teaspoons salt, and cayenne. Add milk and egg to flour mixture and stir together to create a batter. Add corn and fold to combine.
• Heat 4 inches oil in a large heavy-bottomed pot or Dutch oven over high heat until a deep-fry thermometer reaches 375 degrees. Working in batches, using a small ice cream scoop or two spoons, drop batter by the tablespoon into the oil. Cook, turning occasionally, until cooked through and deep-golden brown, 1 to 2 minutes; adjust heat as needed to keep oil temperature between 350 and 360 degrees. Transfer fritters to a paper-towel-lined baking sheet. Season to taste with salt, and serve immediately with honey.

CORNMEAL FRITTERS

Steps:

• In a medium-size bowl, mix together the cornmeal and baking powder. Add the coconut milk and stir until the batter is smooth. Add the onion, scallions, and Scotch bonnet pepper, and stir the mixture until well combined. The batter should be moist yet firm enough to form into 2-inch patties with your hands. Add more cornmeal or liquid (coconut milk or water) if needed. (Rinse your hands with cold water before forming the patties so the batter doesn't stick to your hands.)
• In a large skillet, heat the oil until it is very hot. Carefully place the patties into the skillet while lightly shaking the pan to keep them from sticking. Fry in batches until golden on both sides, about 3 minutes per side, using more oil if needed. Remove the fritters and drain them on paper. Serve while still hot.

JIMMY'S CLAM AND CORN FRITTERS

• Heat oil in a deep-fryer or large saucepan to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Scoop about 1 heaping tablespoon of batter per fritter and gently drop into the hot oil; deep-fry in small batches of 3 or 4 fritters until golden brown, 3 to 4 minutes. Drain fritters on paper towels.

GRANDMA'S CORN FRITTERS

Steps:

• Combine corn, eggs, milk, butter, salt and pepper to taste, if using.
• Add flour gradually, just enough to hold mixture together.
• Amount of flour depends on size of eggs (and weather according to my grandma!).
• Heat 1/2 inch of oil in frying pan.
• Form patties whatever size you'd like, I do small ones so my kids can hold them.
• Fry in hot oil until golden brown.
• Serve as side dish OR if you left out the salt and pepper serve with syrup on the side.
• You can also dust with powdered sugar.

KALE-CORN FRITTERS

Steps:

• In a large bowl, stir together the flour, cornmeal, salt, kale and corn.
• In a medium bowl, lightly beat the eggs.
• Mix in the oil/butter, and milk.
• Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients and pour in the wet ingredients.
• This makes mixing in easier and faster.
• If you are using the onion, sautee it, then add to your batter.
• Also, if you are using the bacon, cook it and crumble it into the batter.
• Reserve some of the bacon grease.
• For both of these, it is better if you can cook your fritters in the same pan- the fact that you already cooked flavorful foods in that pan will add to the flavor of the fritters.
• Do not worry if the batter seems kind of thin.
• Due to the eggs it should fry up fine.
• However, if you try one and feel it is still too thin, feel free to add more flour- about a Tbs at a time.
• Heat a frying pan with oil and/or bacon grease over medium heat.
• Add dollops (about 1/4 cup) of the batter and fry.
• When the fritters are ready to be flipped they will begin to look firm and egg-like around the edges and begin to bubble slightly (This should be about 3 minutes).
• Flip and cook the other side (1-2 min).
• It is much like cooking pancakes, and is pretty easy to get the hang of.
• You may need to fiddle with your heat.
• Be sure these are cooked through as they do contain raw eggs.
• Serve warm.
• I like mine with sour cream, my boyfriend likes his with sour cream and cheddar.
• For Vegetarian Omit the bacon.

CRAB AND CORN FRITTERS WITH FRESH CORN MAYO

Steps:

• Melt the butter in a small saucepan over medium heat. Add the corn and cook, stirring as needed, for about 2 minutes. Remove from the heat.
• In a medium bowl, sift the flour, baking powder, sugar, salt, and cayenne together.
• In a small bowl, whisk the milk, eggs, hot sauce, and Worcestershire together to combine. Make a well in the dry ingredients and pour the wet into it. Combine gently with a whisk, then, with a rubber spatula, gently fold in the corn and crabmeat, taking care to not break up the lumps of crab.
• Add enough oil to come halfway up the side of a deep-sided cast iron skillet or Dutch oven or to the fill line of an electric fryer and preheat to 325 degrees F.
• Working in batches of 6 to 8 and using a 2-tablespoon scoop (like a melon baller or ice cream scoop), carefully drop the fritter batter into the oil. You don't want the fritters browning too fast, so don't allow the temperature of the oil to go higher than 325 degrees F or to drop below 300 degrees F; adjust the heat under the pot as needed. Cover the pot with a splatter screen or the vented top if using an electric fryer to protect yourself, as individual corn kernels will pop and fly if they make contact with the hot oil. As the fritters float to the top, roll them over in the hot oil to brown them evenly. When they are golden on all sides, which will take 5 to 6 minutes per batch, use tongs, a slotted spoon, or a spider to transfer them to paper towels to drain. Season with salt immediately so the salt sticks to the fritters, if desired. Repeat until you use up all the batter.
• Serve hot with the Fresh Corn Mayo.
