  • Author: WAFA LI

Ingredients

INGREDIENTS:
🌽 ⅓ cup all-purpose flour (40g)
🌽 ¼ cup cornmeal (30g)
🌽 1 egg
🌽 1 green onion, chopped
🌽 1 tablespoon jalapeño, minced
🌽 ⅛ teaspoon smoked paprika
🌽 Salt and pepper to taste
🌽 2 cups corn kernels (fresh, frozen, or leftover)
🌽 ½ cup Monterey Jack cheese (60g)
🌽 ¼ cup milk (60ml) or more if needed
🌽 2 tablespoons olive oil (30ml)


Instructions

Combine flour, cornmeal, egg, onion, and smoked paprika in a bowl. Add salt to taste. Stir in corn and cheese.
Add milk a little bit at a time if needed to make a moist mixture that can still hold its shape. You may not need all of the milk.

Heat oil over medium heat in a large skillet. Spoon 2-3 tablespoons of the corn mixture onto the hot oil and gently flatten with a spatula.
Cook for 3-4 minutes or until golden, flip and cook an additional 3-4 minutes.
Top with sour cream for serving.
