    Ingredients

    * 4 Corn on the cob or 350g canned or frozen corn
    * 1 tbsp Vegetable Oil plus more for deep frying
    * 30 g Ginger minced
    * 6 Garlic Cloves minced
    * 2 Green or Red Chiles thinly sliced
    * 4 Shallots sliced
    * 2 Scallions thinly sliced
    * 5 Lime Leaves stems removed, thinly sliced
    * 2 tsp Ground Coriander
    * 1 tsp Ground Cumin
    * 1/8 tsp Kosher Salt
    * 1/8 tsp Black Pepper
    * 2 Eggs beaten
    * 3/4 cup Cornstarch
    * Sriracha Sauce for serving

    Instructions

    1. Remove the outer husk and threads of the corn cobs, then carefully slice down the outside of the cob with a knife, as close to the core as possible, to remove the kernels. Set aside.
    2. Heat the oil in a frying pan over medium heat. Add the ginger, garlic, chillies, and minced shallots and fry, stirring for 10 minutes. Blend to a medium fine paste in a food processor or mortar and pestle with the scallions and lime leaves. Mix the spice paste with the corn kernels in a bowl and add the coriander, cumin, salt, pepper and eggs.
    3. Stir well to combine then add cornstarch.
    4. Fill a wok 1/3 full with oil. Heat the oil to 350 F or until shimmering. Carefully drop a small spoonful of the batter into the hot oil – it should settle into a rough circular shape. Repeat to make 6-8 fritters, without overcrowding the pan. Fry until golden brown, about 4 minutes.
    5. Transfer to tray a tray lined with paper towel and let drain. Repeat to use up the mixture. Serve immediately with sambal or Sriracha.
