Instructions

Place the grated potatoes in a clean kitchen towel and squeeze out excess moisture.
In a large bowl, combine the grated potatoes, corn kernels, shredded cheddar cheese, chopped onion, eggs, flour, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Mix until well combined.
Heat a generous amount of oil in a skillet over medium heat.
Scoop about ¼ cup of the mixture and flatten into a patty. Carefully place into the hot skillet.
Cook each fritter for 3–4 minutes per side, or until golden brown and crispy.
Transfer cooked fritters to a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.
Serve warm, optionally garnished with chopped green onions or a dollop of sour cream.

Notes

For extra crispiness, ensure the potatoes are well-drained to remove excess moisture.couriermail
