Cajun Corn Crunchies
AppetizersandMunchies

Hunks of corn-off-the-cob fried with a crunchy, spicy coating.


Ingredients:

Spice mixture:

1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper

1 teaspoon chili powder

1/2 teaspoon granulated garlic

1/2 teaspoon salt

3/4 cup plain Panko bread crumbs

 

1/3 cup flour

2 - 3 eggs

Vegetable oil for frying

4 - 5 cobs of cooked corn (cold)


Recipe:

Combine spice ingredients in a small bowl.  Put flour in another small bowl, and lightly beaten eggs in another.

Cut corn lengthwise, breaking into 3" pieces (or so).  The corn 'crumbs' can be saved for a salad or corn muffins.

Heat 1" vegetable oil in a large skillet.  Dip corn pieces first into flour, then eggs, then spice mixture.  Fry in batches until golden brown (it will only take a minute or two).  Drain on paper towels.  Serves 6.
