Ingredients:
– 2 corn on the cob (remove the kernels from the corn and use the edge of a spoon to scrape the sides of the cob to remove any remaining pulp). If you couldn’t find fresh corn, canned corn would do too.
– 1 stalk sprint onion, finely sliced
– 1 stalk Asian celery, finely sliced
– 3 lime leaves, julienne
– 1 red chili, finely sliced
– 1 egg
– 5 tbs flour (or more depending on the consistency of the batter)
– Some water
– Vegetable oil for frying
Spice paste:
– 3 shallots
– 3 garlic
– 1 tsp coriander
– Salt
– Sugar
– Pepper
Directions:
– Pound spice paste ingredients until smooth.
– Mix corn with spice paste, spring onion, Asian celery, chili, lime leaves and egg. Add water and flour until desired consistency, the batter should be somewhat thick.
– Heat vegetable oil in the pan, drop the batter with a tablespoon and fry each side for 5 minutes or until golden brown.
