CORN FRITTERS

Steps:

• Combine water and 1/4 cup oil in a small bowl. Whisk together flour and salt in a large bowl, then add liquid in a slow stream, whisking until combined well. Whisk in yolk until smooth.
• Beat egg white in another small bowl with cleaned whisk or an electric mixer until soft peaks form, then fold into batter. Let batter stand at room temperature 1 hour.
• Cut corn kernels from cobs using a large knife without cutting very deeply into cobs, then, working in a shallow dish, scrape cobs with back of knife to release remaining kernels and liquid. Gently stir kernels with liquid into batter.
• Put oven rack in middle position and preheat oven to 200°F.
• Heat remaining 3 3/4 cups oil with garlic in a 12-inch heavy skillet (about 1 inch deep) over moderately high heat until thermometer registers 375°F. Remove garlic when golden.
• Fry heaping tablespoons of batter in batches of 6 or 7 in hot oil, without turning, until fritters are deep golden, about 4 minutes. Return oil to 375°F and skim out any bits of batter between batches. Transfer fritters to paper towels with tongs to drain, then transfer to a shallow baking pan and keep warm in oven. Season with salt before serving.

FRESH SWEET CORN FRITTERS

Steps:

• Whisk flour and baking powder into a bowl and mix in corn kernels. Whisk egg yolks with cream in a small bowl and stir into the corn mixture; season with salt and black pepper. Beat egg whites with an electric mixer until fluffy and stiff peaks form in a separate bowl. Gently fold egg whites into the batter, retaining as much volume as possible.
• Pour vegetable oil into a deep heavy skillet to a depth of 3 inches. Heat to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
• Drop fritters into the hot oil, 2 to 3 tablespoons at a time, and cook until golden brown, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Drain fritters on paper towels and serve drizzled with cane syrup.

CORN FRITTERS

Steps:

• Trim off the tips of the corn cobs. Standing a cob in a wide bowl, slice off the kernels with a sharp knife. Repeat.
• To the corn, add the milk, egg, sugar, baking powder, salt and cayenne. Combine with a large whisk. Mix in cornmeal and flour. Let rest for at least 10 minutes.
• Heat oven to 200 degrees. Line a rimmed baking sheet with paper towels or brown paper bags, and put it in the oven. In a large nonstick skillet, heat 2 tablespoons oil over medium heat. Working in batches, drop batter into the pan by heaping tablespoons. Fry until golden brown, about 3 minutes on each side. Transfer to the prepared baking sheet and sprinkle with salt. The fritters can be kept warm in the oven up to 30 minutes. Serve with maple syrup.

SUGAR-DUSTED CORN FRITTERS

Steps:

• Beat the egg, milk and sugar together.
• Sift the dry ingredients and add to the egg mixture.
• (If using sifted flour, you can just mix the dry ingredients together well and still get excellent results).
• Add the melted butter or margarine (or oil) and beat or stir briskly by hand until well blended.
• Stir or fold in the corn until evenly distributed.
• Drop by tablespoons into hot deep fat (375 degrees) and cook until golden brown.
• Drain on paper towels.
• Place on plates and dust with confectioner's sugar if desired. These are best if served with maple syrup.
• Notes: I usually try one first.
• If I find the oil is bubbling through the fritter, which would make it too greasy, I'll add a little more flour to the batter to prevent that.
• Also, as a shortcut, instead of deep frying, I usually pour 2 or 3 inches of oil into a large saucepan or electric frying pan and fry that way.
• When one side is brown, I just turn and brown the other side.
