Thai Corn Fritters (Tod Man Khao Pod)
- 1/2 cup cornflour
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 tablespoon kosher salt
- 1 tablespoon curry paste
- 1 teaspoon ginger
- 1 teaspoon lime juice
- 1 large egg
- 2 tablespoons sweet and sour sauce
- 1/2 teaspoon hot sauce
- 1 ear of corn
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- Start boiling corn on the cob. Alternately, an equivalent amount of frozen corn can be used in step 5 below.
- Start heating oil in a small cooking pot with the burner set to medium. NOTE: a smaller pot will allow less oil to be used to permit coverage of the fritters. Alternately, other cooking oils can be used.
- Mix masa harina cornflour, baking powder, and 1/2 tablespoon of salt in a mixing bowl.
- Beat egg separately, then add to the dry mix.
- Fold in egg, curry paste, freshly grated ginger, and lime juice until fully blended.
- Cut boiled corn from the cob and blend into the mixture.
- Using a tablespoon, carefully drop spoonfuls of mixture into the oil. Avoid dropping the spoonfuls of mixture to prevent oil spatter. Ideally, a cookie scoop can be used to create uniform fritters.
- The fritters cook quickly in the pan, so watch for browning on the underside. This can happen in a little as 30 seconds.
- Using a fork, carefully turn over the fritters to brown the other side.
- Place completed fritters on a paper towel to remove excess grease.
