Amount Measure Ingredient -- Preparation Method

-------- ------------ --------------------------------

1 1/4 cups all-purpose flour

1/4 cup yellow cornmeal -- medium-grind, preferably

stone-ground

2 teaspoons baking powder

1/2 teaspoon salt

pinch white pepper

2/3 cup whole milk

2 large eggs

3 tablespoons unsalted butter -- melted

2 tablespoons red bell pepper -- (or green), minced

5 ears fresh corn kernels -- cut off the cob, OR 2

1/2 cups frozen corn, thawed

1/4 cup olive oil -- to 1/2 cup, as needed

 

Combine the flour, cornmeal, baking powder, salt, and pepper in a large

bowl. Make a well in the center and add the milk, eggs and melted

butter, stirring just until combined. Fold in the bell pepper and corn

with a spatula. Do not overmix; the batter will have small lumps.

 

Heat 2 tablespoons of the oil in a griddle or heavy skillet over medium

heat. Using a 1/4 cup measure or large spoon for each fritter cake,

pour the batter onto the griddle. Cook until crispy; the edges should

be dark brown and dry and the bottoms golden brown, about 2 minutes.

Turn once, cooking the other side until golden, about 1 minute. Drain

on a double layer of paper towels. Continue frying the fritter cakes,

using 2 tablespoons of oil for each batch. Serve immediately or keep

warm in a preheated 250 degree F oven until ready to serve.

NOTES : Corn fritter cakes are a good accompaniment to anything

roasted. These have a pronounced corn flavor and a nice

texture that comes from the large proportion of fresh

vegetables in the batter. Serve with a tablespoon of sour

cream and a drizzle of hot pepper jelly or crock gravy.
