Corn fritters

       

          My Mom's kitchen was filled with lovely aroma as I fried Corn pakodas/fritters for an evening snack.  Corn is a good source of pantothenic acid, phosphorus, niacin, dietary fiber, manganese and vitamin B6 so I love to include them in our diet. The fritters made for a perfect evening snack -delicious and crunchy is how I can describe these fritters now it's upon you to try and find out the right words for it.

It is a super easy snack that can be done under 15 mins. I used fresh corn so I cooked them till tender you can also use frozen ones.
