Corn Fritters Corn Fritters
I made this by request of my corn fritter loving friends. I used simple ingredients and flavored them the way they like it.1. The fritter batter is well flavored, so you can enjoy the fritters without any sauce.2. 70 grams of flour makes a rather loose batter, but you can enjoy the crispiness of the vegetables more. Please adjust the amount of flour to taste.3. Be careful not to burn yourself when adding the fritters to the hot oil. Recipe by PARNELL cookpad.japan -
Corn Tempura Fritters Corn Tempura Fritters
I had some corn tempura some time ago at an izakaya (Japanese gastropub), and I was amazed at how good it was! I think it was frozen corn though...I thought it would be even better made with fresh corn, so I tried making it.If the batter is too loose it won't dry up properly. If it looks like the fritters will fall apart when turning them over, user a spoon.Don't touch the fritters right after putting them in the frying oil. Turn them over after the surface has hardened.I used fresh corn this time, but you can make this with frozen corn as well. For 2 servings. Recipe by Riirin no ouchi recipe cookpad.japan -

Baby Corn Fritters Baby Corn Fritters
I used the coating from "Italian Tempura Fritters"and had fun with it to make a crispy and light coating for the vegetables.Please don't use cake flour, use bread flour. This is not difficult like making Japanese tempura. They will easily become crispy. Make sure to sprinkle with salt while they are still hot, otherwise the flavor won't be absorbed.

Indeed, it is easy.By the way actually in Indonesia there are many kind of vegetables fritters. But normally they have similar ingredients and seasoning but some other region has different way of how to fried. In East Java, they’re using ladle to shape the batter and deep frying it. It’s called Weci, Heci, or Ote-ote. In West Java they’re simply just dropping the batter with the spoon into the hot oil and fried it. It’s called Bala-bala.

Bakwan Sayur Renyah (Crunchy Indonesian Vegetables Fritters) Bakwan Sayur Renyah (Crunchy Indonesian Vegetables Fritters)
Who doesn’t like deep fried snacks? Indonesia 🇮🇩 is very popular for its crunchy fritters. When I was a kid,I liked to buy them a lot after school. The original version of these vegetables fritters are made of cabbage, carrots, and bean sprouts. I’m not a big fan of cabbage so I used green beans instead of cabbage. You can either use cabbage or green beans. Enjoy! 😋 Follow my Instagram @jenscookingdiary if you like my recipes 😊🙏🏻 jenscookingdiary
