Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 15 oz canned corn kernels
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 cup yellow cornmeal
- 1 teaspoon baking powder
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 2 tablespoons sugar
- 2 large eggs
- 0.5 cup milk
- 3 cups vegetable oil
Instructions
Drain the canned corn kernels thoroughly and set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, combine all-purpose flour, yellow cornmeal, baking powder, salt, and sugar. Stir until well mixed.
In a separate bowl, beat the eggs and then add the milk, mixing well until fully combined.
Slowly add the wet mixture to the dry ingredients, stirring well to form a thick batter.
Fold in the drained corn kernels into the batter, ensuring that the kernels are evenly distributed.
Heat the vegetable oil in a deep frying pan or skillet over medium heat until it reaches 350°F (175°C).
Carefully drop heaping spoonfuls of the corn batter into the hot oil, being cautious to not overcrowd the pan.
Fry the corn nuggets for 3 to 4 minutes on each side, or until they are golden brown and crispy.
Use a slotted spoon to remove the nuggets from the oil and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.
Serve the corn nuggets warm with your favorite dipping sauce or a sprinkle of salt for added flavor.
