Preparation
- Step 1
In a medium bowl, combine the flour, cornmeal, baking powder, baking soda, turmeric, cumin seeds, garam masala, cayenne, pepper and 1 teaspoon salt. Whisk until thoroughly combined. Pour in the milk and buttermilk and stir until just mixed. Stir in the corn.
- Step 2
In a large saucepan over medium-high heat, add oil to a depth of 1 ½ inches. When the oil is very hot, working in batches, drop in rounded tablespoons of the batter and fry, turning the fritters occasionally, until browned, about 5 minutes. Using a slotted spoon, transfer to paper towels to drain. Sprinkle with salt and serve hot with corn chowder or clam chowder or on their own as an appetizer.

Great recipe. We used 1.5 cups of corn, you could go as much as 2. Mildly spiced, next time we'll use a third more of everything. 1 tsp of salt is a lot, especially if you salt just before serving (we halved it in the batter, was still a bit too much). Used this as a side to cod fillets, wonderful. Note: needs to be served immediately after draining, cools *very* quickly.
Delish! Modified slightly with two ears of corn (about 2 cups), did 1.5x on spices (not cayenne and salt), added 2 eggs, .25 cup diced onion, and 2 tbsp sugar.
Flavor bombs. Hush puppy kicked up a notch. I added green onions . They do need salt. Serve with sour cream spiked with lime juice.
