Corn Fritters

My trip to the farmers market brought me home with fresh corn. Now what to do with it? Grilled corn came to mind. Then I turned that into these fabulous fritters with a green chile sour cream.

1/4 Cup flour

1/4 Cup corn meal

1/2 Tsp smoked paprika

1/2 Tsp Chipotle powder

1/4 Tsp cumin

1 1/2 Cups grilled corn

1 Tbls chopped cilantro

1 Tbls chopped chives

1 Egg beaten

1 Tbls lime juice

1/2 Cup of queso fresco

1/4 Cup of water

1 Tbls of oil- what ever you usually fry with

Whisk your dry ingredients together in a large bowl. Add in all the rest of the ingredients except the water and stir to combine. Add the water in a little at a time, only use enough to pull the mixture together as a batter. Heat the oil in a large non-stick skillet on medium heat. Divide the batter in to 4 equal portions and spoon them into the pan and spread them out a little. Fry until brown on both sides, 4 to 5 minutes on each side.

For the green chile sour cream, mix sour cream, green salsa, cumin and salt.
