Crispy Corn Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• In a large bowl, combine the bread cubes and onion. Pour in the whole kernel corn, cream style corn and milk. Season with sugar, salt and pepper and stir to blend everything evenly. Transfer to a greased 2 quart casserole dish. In a separate bowl, toss together the rice cereal and melted butter. Sprinkle over the top of the casserole.
• Bake uncovered for 45 minutes in the preheated oven, or until the top is toasted and the corn is heated through.

Steps:

• In a medium saucepan over medium low heat, melt together semisweet chocolate chips, peanut butter and butter.
• Place crispy corn and rice cereal in a large bowl. Pour the chocolate chip mixture over the cereal. Sift confectioners' sugar into the mixture. Cover bowl and shake vigorously until all cereal is fully coated. Allow the mixture to cool slightly before serving.

Steps:

• In a medium bowl, stir together the rice, green onions, corn, cheddar, pimentos and basil. In another medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, paprika, salt and pepper, then pour over the rice mixture and stir to combine. Let the mixture sit for 5 minutes.
• Meanwhile, fill a large cast-iron skillet with 1/4 inch of oil and heat the oil over medium-high heat until it shimmers. Line a baking sheet with paper towels and set it nearby.
• Scoop 1/4 cup of the rice mixture, pressing it down lightly in the measuring cup, then turn it out into the hot oil and lightly flatten it. (You can cook 3 or 4 at a time, depending on the size of your skillet.) Fry for 1 1/2 to 2 minutes, until browned underneath. Take care to not move the fritters around after you first add them to the pan so they stay intact while they cook. Gently flip the fritters and cook for another 2 to 2 1/2 minutes. Transfer to the paper towel-lined baking sheet to drain and sprinkle with a bit of salt while warm. Serve with a dollop of sour cream or with the Green Goddess Dip.
• In a food processor, combine the parsley, mint, basil, chives, sour cream, mayonnaise, lemon zest, lemon juice, cream cheese, salt and pepper and process for 3 minutes, stopping and scraping down the sides to make sure all the ingredients are fully incorporated. Taste and add more salt and pepper, if needed. Transfer to a bowl.

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 250F and arrange a rack in the middle.
• Remove the corn kernels from the cobs: Place a large container on a damp towel. Fold a paper towel into fourths and place it inside the container. Stand one ear of corn on the paper towel, using the stem as a handle. Using a paring knife, slice downward, letting the kernels fall into the container. Rotate the cob to get another row. Using the back of a knife scrape along the cobs to extract the milky liquid and add it to the bowl with the kernels. Discard the cobs. You need 2 cups of kernels (alternatively collect 2 cups drained canned corn).
• Whisk flour, cornmeal, baking powder, salt, and cayenne pepper together in a bowl until combined. Whisk the milk and egg together in a small bowl until combined, add them to the flour mixture and stir until combined. Stir in the corn and scallions until evenly mixed; set aside.
• Pour the oil into a Dutch oven or a large heavy-bottomed pot and heat over medium-high heta until the oil temperature registers 360F on a deep fry thermometer. Meanwhile, fit a wire rack over a baking sheet, set aside.
• When the oil is ready, carefully drop 5 heaping tablespoons of the corn batter into it. Fry, turning ocassionally until dark golden all over, about 4 minutes. Be careful as some of the corn kernels may pop causing hot oil to spatter. Using a slotted spoon or spider skimmer transfer the fritters to the wire rack on the baking sheet and place in the oven to keep warm. Use the slotted spoon or spider to skim and discard any bits of fritter remaining in the pot. Repeat with the remaining batter.
• Serve immediately - you can dip in tartar sauce if you like.
