Cheesy Corn Fritters - cooking recipe

Ingredients
    2 ears corn, cooked (or 1 cup/250 mL frozen corn kernels, thawed and drained)
    1/4 cup fine cornmeal
    1/4 cup whole wheat flour
    1 teaspoon salt
    1 pinch baking soda
    3/4 cup cheddar cheese, grated
    2 green onions, chopped
    1 egg
    1/4 cup milk
    1 tablespoon olive oil
Preparation
    Carefully slice corn kernels from leftover cobs and set aside. Then, in a medium bowl, whisk together cornmeal, flour, salt and baking soda. Add cheddar cheese and stir, then mix in corn niblets and green onion. In a separate small bowl, combine egg and milk, and whisk until frothy. Add to corn mixture and combine well.
    Heat oil in a large frying pan over medium heat. To form patties, scoop batter 1/3 cup (75 mL) at a time and place in hot pan (a dry measure or ice cream scoop works well). Flatten patties slightly with the back of a large spoon; each should be about the size of a hamburger. Fry 5 to 6 minutes, turning halfway through cooking time, until patties are golden brown on both sides.
