Kale-Corn Fritters

Features:
    Cuisine:

    As my garden is over flowing with kale I am searching for things to make. These fritters were a perfect addition to dinner tonight to help with the "growing kale problem". The fritters were quite tasty and everyone at the table enjoyed them (the neighbors too as I took some over). The only addition I made was a 1/2 tsp of baking powder as they had no leavening ingredient. They turned out light with good flavor. These will be repeated.

    Kale-Corn Fritters,Adapted from an adaptation from Cait Johnson’s book, “Witch in the Kitchen”. These are yummy and while they taste awful for you- are pretty good, especially with all the super-nutritious kale they contain. They go well with traditional Southern dishes- I think they would be very good with fried catfish. They also freeze well. I just cook mine at about 350F for 5-7 min in my toaster oven still frozen and eat! Be sure to cut your kale small enough, because the large chunks can be kind of offensive.
