Corn is a staple used widely throughout Thailand, whether it's sold by streetside vendors that cook it on a charcoal grille, added to ice cream (really!) or spooned onto pizza. Here's an enjoyable fried corn snack, which would most likely be served with a sweet chile sauce for dipping. This is a vegetarian recipe.
Ingredients:
2 cups fresh corn (about 4 ears)
1 egg
1/4 cup sliced long green beans
1 tbsp kaeng kua curry paste
2-3 tbsp rice flour
2 tbsp thin (light) soy sauce
1 tsp salt
2 cups vegetable oil
3 tbsp wheat flour
Method:
Blend all ingredients (except vegetable oil and wheat flour) and knead to a uniform texture. Form the dough into 1 inch thick balls, flatten slightly, roll in the wheat flour, and fry in hot vegetable oil. Remove from oil when golden brown, let excess oil drip onto a paper towel, serve and enjoy.
