15 Minute Corn Fritters

Perfect for snacking or as a side dish, these corn fritters take just 15 minutes to make and taste incredible!

They have a hint of Thai flavour from the fish sauce and are wonderful served with a sweet chilli sauce for dipping, but they’d equally work well with a range of other dishes too.

I like to make a batch for us to snack on while watching TV – they are so quick and easy to make that they’re an excellent lazy day snack.

15 Minute Corn Fritters – The Ingredients

  • Flour, eggs – these are the ingredients that make the batter, just like with pancakes. Use plain flour and medium or large eggs.
  • Caster sugar – you could use palm sugar if you like, or omit completely.
  • Fish sauce – fish sauce adds a nice depth of flavour, but if you don’t fancy it you can switch with half a teaspoon of salt.
  • Garlic – fresh garlic is best, but you could use half a teaspoon of garlic powder.
  • Sweetcorn – tinned sweetcorn works really well. You could switch for defrosted frozen sweetcorn.
  • Sunflower oil – for frying. You could also use vegetable oil.
  • Sweet chilli sauce – for dipping, optional.
