CORN NUGGETS

Posted on January 17, 2024

Corn nuggets are a popular snack or appetizer made from corn kernels, typically mixed with a batter and deep-fried until golden brown and crispy. They are similar in concept to chicken nuggets but are vegetarian or vegan, as they don’t contain meat. The exact recipe can vary, but generally, corn nuggets are made by combining corn kernels with a mixture of flour, cornmeal, eggs or a suitable egg substitute, and seasonings. The resulting batter-coated corn nuggets are then deep-fried until they achieve a crunchy texture.

Here’s a simple recipe for making corn nuggets:

Ingredients:

  • 2 cups fresh or frozen corn kernels
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup cornmeal
  • 2 eggs (or egg substitute for a vegan version)
  • 1 teaspoon baking powder
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/2 cup milk (or plant-based milk for a vegan version)
  • Oil for deep frying

Instructions:

  1. In a large bowl, combine the flour, cornmeal, baking powder, salt, and black pepper.
  2. In a separate bowl, beat the eggs and then add the milk, mixing well.
  3. Add the egg and milk mixture to the dry ingredients, stirring until a batter forms.
  4. Gently fold in the corn kernels, ensuring they are evenly coated with the batter.
  5. Heat oil in a deep fryer or large skillet to 350°F (175°C).
  6. Drop spoonfuls of the batter into the hot oil and fry until golden brown, turning as needed to cook all sides.
  7. Remove the corn nuggets with a slotted spoon and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain any excess oil.
  8. Serve the corn nuggets warm with your favorite dipping sauce.

Feel free to customize the recipe by adding herbs, spices, or cheese to suit your taste preferences. Enjoy your corn nuggets!
