Makes about 20 little fritters
Author Notes
These little fritters are a treat served before a meal or as an accompaniment for soup. They are delicate and delicious and also a wonderful vehicle for many deferent toppings. I served them with Prosciutto slices. You can prepare them a couple hours ahead and reheat them on a wire rack set over a baking sheet in a 375 Degrees oven for a few minutes. Inspired by Jacque Papen’s recipe “Little Corn Fritters". —Kukla
Ingredients
-
• 1/3 cup all-purpose flour

-
• 1?4 teaspoon salt
-
• 1/2 teaspoon Bay Seasoning
-
• 1 large egg
-
• 1/3 cup seltzer water
-
• 2 ears fresh corn (about 2 cups), husked and kernels cut off
-
• 7 ounces Crawfish tail meat in brine, rinsed, well drained and diced
-
• 6 tablespoons canola oil
Directions

Heat 3 tablespoons of the oil in a large skillet until hot. Drop 1 tablespoon of batter into the skillet for each fritter, making about 10 fritters, and cook over medium-high heat for 3 to 4 minutes on each side, until golden brown. Transfer to a wire rack (this will keep them from becoming soggy) and repeat with the remaining batter and oil. Sprinkle them with salt and serve immediately.
