Ingredients

Oil for deep frying
2 cups Fresh corn kernels 3 ears
1 Medium onion chopped
1 Jalapeno seeded and minced
1 tablespoon Ginger garlic paste
¾ cup Garbanzo chickpea flour
2 tablespoon White rice flour
1 teaspoon Cumin seeds
1 teaspoon Curry powder
¾ teaspoon Salt
½ teaspoon Coriander powder
½ teaspoon Garam Masala
½ cup Water

Instructions

Start heating your oil to 350F – you’ll want at least 2-3″ of oil in your pot or deep fryer.
In a large mixing bowl, stir together corn, onion, jalapeno, and ginger garlic paste. Add flours, spices, and salt, stirring well to coat the vegetables.
Add water, stirring well to form a thick batter. Allow batter to sit for 5 minutes or so, to soften the bean flour.
Use two spoons to carefully scoop small amounts (2 tablespoon or less) of batter into the preheated oil.
Fry for a few minutes on each side, until golden brown and crispy
Use a slotted metal spoon to transfer fried fritters to paper towels to drain.
Serve hot, with cilantro-mint chutney.
