These fritters, made with sourdough batter filled with fresh corn, minced jalapeno, a little scallion, and a bit of red bell pepper, are a delicious, seasonal treat, especially when drizzled with a little hot honey.

It is the end of sweet corn season here in Michigan. You will want to hurry and make these delicious fritters before it is all gone. I drizzled mine with Hot Honey before serving. We couldn't get enough of them.

Hurry and make these while fresh sweet corn is available. Missed your window? Frozen or canned corn will work as well.

Great way to freshen your starter! I bet Frank loved this!
ReplyDeleteHe was very happy.
DeleteOh yum, so much flavor! Fritters are so rare for us, what a treat.
ReplyDeleteYes, especially because we don't have them often either.
DeleteI cannot wait to give these a try with our chili. We always each chili with cornbread, this sounds like a great combo to me!
ReplyDeleteThey would be wonderful with Chili.
DeleteWow, would have never thought of using sourdough starter for a fritter recipe. So going to give this recipe a try before the corn season disappears.
ReplyDeleteLet me know how you like it Mayuri.
DeleteThese will taste great will some spicy chutney too for a party as appetizers!
ReplyDeleteOh, they sure would.
