Thai Sweet Corn Fritters

Instructions

1. 1

   Drain corn kernels thoroughly and pat them dry with paper towels to prevent oil splatters during frying.

2. 2

   In a mixing bowl, whisk egg and red curry paste together until completely smooth.

3. 3

   Whisk in rice flour and cornstarch until a thick, lump-free batter forms.

4. 4

   Fold in dry corn kernels and shredded lime leaves so every kernel gets coated in batter.

5. 5

   Heat vegetable oil in a skillet over medium heat until a small drop of batter sizzles immediately.

6. 6

   Drop spoonfuls of corn mixture into hot oil and flatten slightly with a spatula.

7. 7

   Fry for 3 minutes per side over medium heat until deep golden brown and crispy, then drain on paper towels.

8. 8

   Serve hot and crispy alongside sweet chili sauce for dipping.
