Vegan Fire Roasted Jalapeño Corn Fritters with Chipotle Aioli
Hello & Happy Monday!
I don’t know about you, but there was a time when I rarely ate corn. Perhaps it stemmed from it being one of the the largest gmo crops next to soy, or the that it’s composition is mostly carbs with little nutritional value. For whatever reason, I just never ate it. Fast forward to the last 10 years, I discovered Cuban Corn and the rest was history lol. If you’ve never tried it, I highly recommend it.
What I love about corn, is that it brings a sweet flavor profile that’s perfect for savory. Combine that hint of sweet with a lil heat, and you have an amazing combination. I love jalapeño cornbread, jalapeño corn chowder, and of course, these Jalapeño Corn Fritters! I had made a similar recipe back in 2018, but I wanted to revisit this concept, put a modern spin on it and pair it with a staple sauce.. and the new vegan Fire Roasted Corn + Jalapeno Fritters with Chipotle Aioli were born!
Let’s talk fritters! If you’re not familiar with fritters, simply put, it’s just a bunch of ingredients that typically are held together with egg serving as the binder that can cater to any season. You can fill them with whatever you like from veggies to quinoa and they are just so quick and easy! That being said, if you have a bunch of random produce on it’s way out, a fritter may be a good solution!
What’s great about this recipe? Everything! It’s quick, easy, affordable, veggie packed, flavor packed, can easily be made in bulk, great for entertaining, packs heat, a hint of sweet, pairs perfectly with the sauce, you can use this effortless sauce for countless other dishes (I do), the fire roasted corn adds a hint of a smokey flavor, and they are just so good!

Hello
These look delicious but in New Zealand we do not have frozen fire roasted corn kernels. Could you suggest how I can get this flavour with adding to corn kernels?
Hi Meena, I would just grill the corn!
