Ingredients You Will Need

Corn kernels– You can use either regular corn or sweet corn kernels here. I have used sweet corn kernels. No need to boil or blanch them.

Onions– Be generous with onions as they so much flavor and taste.

chickpea flour– chickpea flour is the binding agent we use in this recipe. If not gluten free you can also add plain four or wheat flour.

Rice flour– a small amount of rice flour is added for crispiness. Your other options are spelt flour, amaranth flour, almond flour.

Herbs– In fistfuls please. Add loads of chopped cilantro, scallion greens, dill leaves, parsley, chives. Add one or add add all 🙂 I used cilantro and scallion greens.

Seasoning– I have kept the seasoning for this vegan corn fritters very simple. Just some freshly cracked black peppercorns, salt and that’s it.

How To Make Vegan Corn Fritters

Combine 1 cup chickpea flour and 1/2 cup water in a large bowl.

Using a whisk, whisk this mixture vigorously to form a slurry.

Add finely chopped herbs and thinly sliced onions to the chickpea slurry.

Now add sweet corn kernels.

Finally add rice flour, freshly cracked black peppercorns and salt.

Mix well everything together. Heat 2 tablespoons oil in a thick flat pan or skillet.

Using a cookie cutter remove a portion of the fritters batter.

Place in hot oil and gently spread a little with a ladle.

You can fry 3-4 fritters at a time depending on the size of your pan.

Fry the fritters from both sides until golden in medium flame.

Remove to a plate.

Fry the remaining batter in the same oil.

Serve vegan corn fritters warm.

I like to serve these fritters as snack with a simple salad like onion tomato salad, or cucumber salad. Even avocado salad will taste good here.
