Corn Fritters with Caramelized Onion Jam
>From Taste of Home A friend's husband, who's a chef, came up with these light and fluffy fritters accompanied perfectly by a sweet-tart jam. I would never ask a chef to divulge his secrets, so I created my own version. I serve them with soups and barbecued chicken or pork. -Kim Cupo Albany, Georgia SERVINGS 24 CATEGORY Lower Fat METHOD Deep-Frying PREP 30 min. COOK 15 min. TOTAL 45 min.
