I used frozen corn because I had a bunch on hand that I wanted to get rid of but fresh corn would be even better.
Indonesian Corn and Shrimp Fritters
YIELD: 4 servings
INGREDIENTS:
* 3 cups fresh or frozen corn kernels
* 2 tablespoons grated fresh ginger (I use a micoplane zester)
* 1 teaspoons galangal powder (also called laos in some countries)
* 2 cloves garlic, finely chopped
* 5 shallots, finely chopped
* 2 hot red chilis, seeded and finely chopped
* 2 eggs
* 3 tablespoons rice flour
* 1/2 cup small shrimp, peeled, deveined and chopped coarse
* salt and pepper
* oil for shallow frying
DIRECTIONS:
In a bowl mix the first nine ingredients. Season with salt and pepper.
Heat a thin layer of cooking oil in a large heavy frying pan over medium-high heat. Drop heaping tablespoons of the corn mixture into the oil and fry the patties for several minutes on each side, until golden brown.
Remove from heat and drain on paper towels. Great with tamarind ketchup. I think sweet chili sauce (Mae Ploy) would also be a great match.
