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