INGREDIENTS:

2 tsp ground coriander
1 tsp freshly ground pepper
6 shallots, peeled and chopped fine
3 garlic cloves, minced
1 tsp salt
1 tbs sugar

Fritters:

2 1/2 c frozen or fresh corn, cut from the cob
1 tbs chives, finely chopped
1 egg, beaten
2 tbs flour
1 c canola oil for frying

PREPARATION:

To make the spice paste, combine all ingredients in a medium bowl. Set aside.
Grind corn kernels in a food processor or blender.
Scrape corn into a large mixing bowl and add chives, egg, flour, and spice paste. Mix with a wooden spoon or electric mixer to make a smooth, thick batter.
In a large, heavy frying pan, heat oil over medium-high heat. When a bit of batter dropped into the pan sizzles immediately, the oil is ready for frying. To make a fritter, use a large mixing spoon to carefully drop 2 tbsp. of batter into the pan. Fry fritter for 2 to 4 minutes, or until it turns golden brown. You may make up to four fritters at a time. When they are done, use a spatula to transfer them to a plate covered with a paper towel. Serve hot with sambal or Thai chili sauce.
