Thai-Style Corn Fritters

Thai-Style Corn Fritters

Happy summer!

Too hot to spend much time at the stove?

These Thai Corn Fritters may be just what you need. A short cook on the griddle and you have a tasty appetizer, entree or side. (OK. I’ll fess up. I eat these for breakfast, too.)

I’ve long enjoyed simple pancakes laced with sliced jalapenos (and sometimes fresh corn) and sauced with maple syrup. This is a variation on that recipe. This recipe has no dairy and lots of sliced green onions. The onion complements the sweet fresh corn perfectly. You can eat this with maple syrup or Vietnamese sweet chili dipping sauce (nuoc cham ga). I added some cayenne pepper to my maple syrup and got the hot bite I was looking for. I love the sweet and hot flavors in this dish!

This recipe also takes advantage of the beautiful fresh corn in the markets. It’s a win win.

Here’s the recipe.
