Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 200 grams Smoked salmon
- 200 grams Corn kernels (fresh or canned, drained)
- 100 grams All-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon Baking powder
- 125 milliliters Milk
- 1 large Egg
- 1 small Red chili (finely chopped, seeds removed for less heat if desired)
- 2 stalks Green onions (thinly sliced)
- 2 tablespoons Fresh cilantro (chopped)
- 3 tablespoons Vegetable oil (for frying)
- 150 grams Sour cream
- 2 teaspoons Lemon juice
- 0.5 teaspoon Salt
- 0.25 teaspoon Black pepper
Instructions
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, baking powder, salt, and black pepper.
In a separate smaller bowl, beat the egg and milk together until combined.
Slowly pour the wet mixture into the dry ingredients, whisking until a smooth batter forms.
Fold in the corn kernels, chopped chili, green onions, and fresh cilantro, mixing until evenly incorporated.
Heat the vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Once hot, drop 2 tablespoons of the batter per fritter into the skillet, leaving space between each one.
Cook the fritters for 2-3 minutes on each side or until golden brown and cooked through. Remove and drain on paper towels. Repeat with the remaining batter.
In a small bowl, mix the sour cream with the lemon juice. Season with a pinch of salt and black pepper to taste.
To serve, arrange the fritters on a platter. Top each fritter with a slice of smoked salmon and a dollop of the sour cream dip. Garnish with optional extra cilantro or a squeeze of lemon juice, if desired.
