The fritters were perfect with our garden veggie supper. Thanks for the recipe, next time I'll use cooked corn:). I'm also going to try adding fresh herbs next time I make the fritters. <BR/><BR/>dianaAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1423277215518311625.post-74066261148054086112008-08-27T21:24:00.000-04:002008-08-27T21:24:00.000-04:00Diana ~ I'm so sorry for the confusion.

I thought it could use some more milk, but I didn't add it this time, I made them thick. Please let me know how it turns out.Cindyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02388267373707402090noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1423277215518311625.post-22279973953554554402008-08-27T19:43:00.000-04:002008-08-27T19:43:00.000-04:00I just checked back on the recipe because the batt...I just checked back on the recipe because the batter is so thick. I guess I'll add more milk and hope it works out. When you say fresh corn, you mean raw corn, don't you? Or do you mean freshly cooked corn on the cob? I'll let you know how it turns out.<BR/><BR/>dianaAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1423277215518311625.post-7441564823926336222008-08-25T22:21:00.000-04:002008-08-25T22:21:00.000-04:00This sounds yummy - thanks for the corn-inspiratio...This sounds yummy - thanks for the corn-inspiration!! :)Wendy Christensenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09098191782293764634noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1423277215518311625.post-8418422443425701592008-08-24T15:16:00.000-04:002008-08-24T15:16:00.000-04:00Yum.

I should have put that in the post, about the light olive oil. That is what I used to fry them when I made them last night.<BR/>And I think I will have to try Eve and Gail's way as well.

Remember how I always cut the kernals short and then scraped the ears thoroughly. It makes a creamier corn and probably more moisture in the recipe. <BR/>Eve and Cindy - I think I need to try Eve's recipe. I did that a few times sauteing some onions and green peppers and people liked that also, except Daddy who does not like peppers at all.Mariehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01503784604317451788noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1423277215518311625.post-34636476508224107012008-08-21T23:27:00.000-04:002008-08-21T23:27:00.000-04:00Delicious!

Very similar indeed. My corn is not from my garden, but they were still good. They turned out thicker than I remember. Maybe I should have used more milk to make them more pancake like. If I make them again, I might try that.Cindyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02388267373707402090noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1423277215518311625.post-55707013980474800512008-08-21T18:38:00.000-04:002008-08-21T18:38:00.000-04:00I bet these are even better than the zucchini cake...I bet these are even better than the zucchini cakes.

I think it would be great to have mango trees. <BR/>My parents farm is a dairy farm - lots of cows, although they have crops as well. Originally (before I was born) my Grandparents raised chickens and my Grandfather would take the eggs into town to sell. Now, that's going way back.Cindyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02388267373707402090noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1423277215518311625.post-26441299289113560822008-08-21T14:15:00.000-04:002008-08-21T14:15:00.000-04:00That is a very pretty corn photo.

We didn't live far from a farm so each year we would drive out and get a "mess" as Mama called it, several times a week during corn season. She would just slice it from the cob and fry it with with some salt and pepper. It was so creamy and good.Evehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10525022534268765494noreply@blogger.com
