Ingredients
  

For the Fritters
  • 2 cups fresh corn kernels Use fresh corn for the best flavor.
  • 1 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 2 large eggs Beaten thoroughly.
  • 0.25 cup finely chopped green onions
  • Neutral oil for frying Ensure the oil is hot enough for crispy texture.

Method
 

Preparation
  1. Measure all ingredients and cut the kernels from fresh corn cobs if using whole corn.
  2. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together all-purpose flour and baking powder until evenly blended.
  3. In a separate bowl, beat the eggs thoroughly. Add in the corn kernels, shredded cheddar cheese, and chopped green onions. Mix until everything is incorporated.
  4. Pour the wet mixture into the bowl with the dry ingredients. Gently fold together just until combined, being careful not to overmix.
Cooking
  1. Heat a thin layer of neutral oil in a skillet over medium heat. Drop spoonfuls of batter into the hot oil, spacing them apart.
  2. Fry each side for approximately 3 minutes, or until golden brown.
  3. Transfer the cooked fritters onto paper towels to drain excess oil before serving.
