Sweet Corn And, Shrimp Cakes

Serve these plain or, if you like, garnish with a dollop of tart green salsa made from tomatillos. Thawed frozen corn works well in this recipe.

Courses: Starters and appetizers
Serves: 8 people

Recipe Ingredients

3 cups 187g / 6.6ozCorn kernels
  = (fresh or thawed frozen)
2 tablespoons 30mlFlour
1   Egg
1/4 cup 59mlHeavy cream or milk
1/2 teaspoon 2.5mlSalt

Recipe Instructions

Puree 2 cups of the corn in a food processor. Add the flour, egg, cream, and salt and pulse several times to combine. Stir in the rest of the corn and the shrimp.

Heat a nonstick or lightly oiled griddle. Make corn cakes using 1 tablespoon of batter for each. Cook in batches over medium-high heat until the bottoms are nicely browned, about 2 minutes. Turn over and cook the other sides until lightly browned, 1 1/2 to 2 minutes longer. Serve immediately.

This recipe yields 6 to 8 appetizer servings.
