- 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup cornmeal
- 1 tbsp. curry powder
- 1 tsp. garlic powder
- 1 tsp. onion powder
- 1/2 tsp. salt
- 1/4 tsp. black pepper
- 1/2 cup milk
- 1 egg
- Vegetable oil, for frying
Cooking Tips:
- Use fresh seafood for the best flavor and texture.
- Be sure to pat the seafood dry before coating it in the batter.
- Don't overcrowd the pan when frying the fritters - this will help them cook evenly and prevent them from sticking together.
Instructions:
1. In a large bowl, whisk together the flour, cornmeal, curry powder, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper.
2. In a separate bowl, whisk together the milk and egg.
3. Add the seafood to the dry ingredients and toss to coat.
4. Pour the milk mixture over the seafood and stir until well combined.
5. Heat about 1 inch of vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
6. Using a spoon or cookie scoop, drop the seafood mixture into the hot oil, making sure not to overcrowd the pan.
7. Fry the fritters for 2-3 minutes per side, or until golden brown and crispy.
8. Remove the fritters from the oil with a slotted spoon and transfer them to a paper towel-lined plate to drain.
9. Serve the fritters hot, garnished with fresh herbs or a squeeze of lemon juice, if desired.
