Description
Deep fried Corn Fritters
Ingredients
Scale
- 10 ounces (285g) Corn Meal
- 1 tsp Salt
- 3 tbsp Sugar
- 1 tbsp Butter
- 2 cups Water
- 2 cups of Oil (for frying)
Instructions
- In a small saucepan, bring to a boil the water, salt, sugar and butter.
- Turn the heat down to low, add one cup of the corn meal and mix well with a whisk.
- Using a spatula, add the remaining corn meal until well incorporated. It should be very thick, dry enough for you to handle easily by hand. Add more corn meal if necessary.
- Let it cool down a bit before handling.
- Form the Sorullitos by scooping about three tablespoons, forming a ball first, then rolling on your hand into a stick about three inches long (7 cm).
- Heat the oil, and fry until they achieve a deep yellow color.
- Serve warm.
Notes
Instead of sticks, shape them into small rounds if you prefer.
