ingredients

For Spicy Aioli Dip
½ cup mayonnaise
1 tablespoon Kikkoman® Gluten-Free Sriracha Hot Chili Sauce
1 teaspoon fresh lime juice

For Corn Fritters
1½ cups corn kernels (fresh, canned, or thawed from frozen)
½ cup all-purpose flour
¼ cup Kikkoman® Panko Bread Crumbs
¼ cup grated Parmesan cheese
2 tablespoons chopped green onions
½ teaspoon garlic powder
¼ teaspoon smoked paprika
¼ teaspoon salt
⅛ teaspoon black pepper
1 large egg
2 tablespoons milk
2 cups beef tallow or vegetable oil (for frying)

directions

Stir together mayonnaise, sriracha sauce, and lime juice in a small bowl. Refrigerate until serving.
In a mixing bowl, combine corn, flour, bread crumbs, parmesan cheese, green onion, garlic powder, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper. In a separate small bowl, whisk together egg and milk. Stir egg mixture into dry ingredients. Batter should be thick.
Heat 1-inch of tallow or oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Once oil is hot, place 2 tablespoon mounds of batter into skillet, working in two batches. Cook 2–3 minutes per side, or until golden brown and crisp. Remove and drain on a paper towel-lined plate. Add more oil between batches as needed.
Serve warm fritters with spicy aioli dip on the side.
