Begin by trimming the kernels off of fresh corn cobs or use frozen corn that has been thawed. Measure out 200 grams of corn kernels.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the corn kernels, almond flour, and baking powder. Stir to mix evenly.
Crack the eggs into the bowl and pour in the coconut milk. Mix everything until a batter forms.
Add the chopped green onions, red chili, and minced garlic to the batter. Season with salt and black pepper.
In a skillet, heat 1 tablespoon of coconut oil over medium heat.
For each fritter, scoop about 2 tablespoons of batter into the hot skillet, shaping it into small patties. You can fry a few fritters at a time, depending on the size of your skillet.
Cook the fritters for 3-4 minutes on each side, or until they are golden brown and cooked through.
Transfer the cooked fritters to a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess oil. Repeat with the remaining batter, adding more coconut oil as needed.
Serve warm as a snack or appetizer. Enjoy your low-carb Bakwan Jagung with a side of chili sauce or your favorite low-carb dip.
