    frying the corn fritters
  • Don't overcrowd your pan. I cooked 3-4 fritters at a time. Cook for 1-2 minutes per side until golden brown. Then flip and finish the other side, cooking for 1-2 minutes.
  • Remove and place on a paper towel lined plate. Sprinkle the hot corn fritters with a little salt.
  • Repeat the cooking process with the remainder of the batter. If you need more oil in the pan, add a little more olive oil as needed.
  • Serve warm or cold.
