These corn cakes can serve as a delicious snack with this avocado jalapeño sauce for dipping, with fried eggs for breakfast, or as a side for grilled or roasted meats. This recipe goes with almost any food.

Two things will ensure a crispy corn fritter: a wide, heavy-bottomed pan, like cast iron, and hot oil. The fritters aren’t deep-fried, but you need at least 1/8th of an inch of oil to cook them. Do not overcrowd the pan, you will get a crispier corn fritter frying just a few at a time.

The batter for these corn fritters can be made up to a day in advance and stored in the fridge. The cooked corn fritters will freeze and can be stored for several weeks. To reheat the frozen corn fritters, thaw them out first and then reheat at 350° F for three to five minutes in the oven.
