Jimmy’s Clam and Corn Fritters Recipe

Directions

Ingredients :

1 ¼ cups finely ground cornmeal

1 (14.75 ounce) can cream-style corn

1 (6.5 ounce) can minced clams, drained

1 small onion, finely chopped

½ cup all-purpose flour

1 teaspoon baking powder

1 teaspoon salt

1 teaspoon white sugar

¼ cup milk, or as needed

1 quart vegetable oil for frying

Methods :

Step 1

Mix cornmeal, cream-style corn, clams, onion, flour, baking powder, salt, and sugar in a bowl until batter is thoroughly combined. If batter is too thick, stir in milk, about 1 tablespoon at a time.

Step 2

Heat oil in a deep-fryer or large saucepan to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

Step 3

Scoop about 1 heaping tablespoon of batter per fritter and gently drop into the hot oil; deep-fry in small batches of 3 or 4 fritters until golden brown, 3 to 4 minutes. Drain fritters on paper towels.
