Make the Sweet Thai Chili SauceCombine all ingredients besides the cornstarch with 3/4 cup water - 2 options - you can blend it, or mince the chilis and garlic and leave them whole. In my picture I left them whol and prefer this method. In a saucepan on medium-high heat, bring the puree or preparation to a boil, the lower the heat and let simmer. Mix the cornstarch with the remaining water then add to the sauce. Let thicken - about a minute. Remove from heat. Note: for extra hot, add 2 Tsbp of shriracha sauce. |

Fry the Corn FrittersUsing a small icecream scooper or a spoon, drop the corn fritter dough into hot oil - 350F - and fry. When they float to the top, flip and let brown for another 1-2 minutes. Do this in batches and don't overcrowd the fryer or pan. |
