Kale Corn Fritters Recipes

KALE-CORN FRITTERS

Steps:

• In a large bowl, stir together the flour, cornmeal, salt, kale and corn.
• In a medium bowl, lightly beat the eggs.
• Mix in the oil/butter, and milk.
• Make a well in the center of the dry ingredients and pour in the wet ingredients.
• This makes mixing in easier and faster.
• If you are using the onion, sautee it, then add to your batter.
• Also, if you are using the bacon, cook it and crumble it into the batter.
• Reserve some of the bacon grease.
• For both of these, it is better if you can cook your fritters in the same pan- the fact that you already cooked flavorful foods in that pan will add to the flavor of the fritters.
• Do not worry if the batter seems kind of thin.
• Due to the eggs it should fry up fine.
• However, if you try one and feel it is still too thin, feel free to add more flour- about a Tbs at a time.
• Heat a frying pan with oil and/or bacon grease over medium heat.
• Add dollops (about 1/4 cup) of the batter and fry.
• When the fritters are ready to be flipped they will begin to look firm and egg-like around the edges and begin to bubble slightly (This should be about 3 minutes).
• Flip and cook the other side (1-2 min).
• It is much like cooking pancakes, and is pretty easy to get the hang of.
• You may need to fiddle with your heat.
• Be sure these are cooked through as they do contain raw eggs.
• Serve warm.
• I like mine with sour cream, my boyfriend likes his with sour cream and cheddar.
• For Vegetarian Omit the bacon.
