Step by Step Method
Step 1
In a blender or food processor add the corn and onion and process until smooth. Add eggs, sugar, salt, pepper and flour (as needed) and baking powder and pulse until blended and smooth -- the batter will be thick.
Step 2
In a large skillet over medium heat heat one inch of oil to 375 degrees F (or until a drop of the prepared mixture sizzles when it touches the oil). Fry the mixture by tablespoonfuls, turning with a slotted spoon until brown on all sides (about 5 minutes or so). Be careful not to crowd the skillet and only fry 3-6 at a time as the temp will drop and fritters will be soggy.
Step 3
Drain on a paper towel lined plate and serve immediately.
