Sweet Corn Fritters

Sweet corn fritters are a great way to enjoy the summer's bounty of fresh corn. They're delicious little bites that can be a snack or a tasty side dish for barbecued meats.

The recipe is very easy and should take no more than 30 minutes from start to finish. Keep this in mind when planning your meal because the fritters are best served hot after draining for a few minutes. Like all fritters, these are deep-fried. While peanut oil is recommended, you can use canola or your favorite frying oil.
