Golden, crackling-crisp fried corn with a soft interior — impossible to eat just one. About 23 minutes from fridge to table.

Prep 18 min Cook 5 min Serves 4 Easy

Ingredients

Vegetable Oilfor deep-frying
Fresh Cilantro1 handful
Eggs2, beaten
All-Purpose Flour100 g
Breadcrumbs150 g
Corn400 g
Smoked Paprika1 tsp

Instructions

1
Pat the corn dry and season with the smoked paprika and a little salt.
2
Set up a breading line: flour, then beaten egg, then breadcrumbs — press the crumbs on firmly.
3
Heat 4-5 cm of oil to 180°C; a breadcrumb dropped in should sizzle straight away.
4
Fry the corn in small batches until deep golden, 3-4 minutes per batch.
5
Drain on a rack, never on paper, and serve hot with green onions scattered over.

Chef's tip

Keep the oil at a steady 180°C — too cool and the coating goes greasy.
