Description

Deliciously crispy fritters made with mashed potatoes, sweet corn, and sharp cheddar cheese, perfect as an appetizer or snack.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups mashed potatoes
  • 1 cup corn kernels (fresh or thawed if frozen)
  • 1 cup shredded sharp cheddar cheese
  • 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
  • 2 large eggs, beaten
  • 2 green onions, finely chopped
  • 1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • Salt and pepper to taste
  • Vegetable oil for frying

Instructions

  1. In a large bowl, combine mashed potatoes, corn kernels, cheddar cheese, flour, beaten eggs, green onions, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper. Mix until well combined.
  2. Heat about 1/4 inch of vegetable oil in a skillet over medium heat.
  3. Scoop approximately 2 tablespoons of the mixture, form into a patty, and carefully place into the hot oil.
  4. Flatten slightly with a spatula and cook for 2-3 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and crispy.
  5. Transfer fritters to a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess oil.
  6. Repeat with the remaining mixture, adding more oil to the skillet as needed.

Notes

  • Ensure the oil is hot enough before adding the patties to prevent them from absorbing too much oil.
  • You can add additional spices or herbs according to your taste preferences.
  • These fritters can be served with a dipping sauce of your choice.
