Parsnip and Sweet Corn Fritters

Ingredients

• Vegetable oil (2 tablespoons)
• Black pepper (1/4 teaspoon)
• Salt (1/2 teaspoon)
• Green onions (2, finely chopped)
• Milk (1/4 cup)
• Egg (1, beaten)
• Baking powder (1 teaspoon)
• All (purpose flour - 1/2 cup)
• Sweet corn kernels (1 cup)
• Parsnips (2 medium, grated)

Instructions

1. In a large bowl, combine the grated parsnips, sweet corn kernels, all-purpose flour, baking powder, beaten egg, milk, green onions, salt, and black pepper. Mix well until all ingredients are evenly combined.
2. Heat the vegetable oil in a frying pan over medium heat.
3. Scoop about 1/4 cup of the fritter mixture and drop it into the hot oil. Flatten it slightly with a spatula. Repeat with the remaining mixture, leaving some space between each fritter.
4. Cook the fritters for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and crispy.
5. Remove the fritters from the pan and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to absorb any excess oil.
6. Serve the parsnip and sweet corn fritters warm as a side dish or appetizer. They can be enjoyed on their own or with a dipping sauce of your choice.
