In a large mixing bowl, gently combine the drained corn, flour, beaten eggs, chopped green onions, baking powder, salt, and pepper. Stir until just incorporated—leave it slightly lumpy for that perfect fritter texture.

Add a generous amount of cooking oil to a non-stick skillet, heating it over medium-high flame until it shimmers but doesn't smoke. A well-heated oil will give your fritters that sought-after crunch!

Carefully drop heaping tablespoons of the batter into the hot oil, making sure not to overcrowd the pan. Fry for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until they turn golden brown and crispy.

Once cooked, use a slotted spoon to remove the fritters and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to absorb excess oil. Season with flaky salt while they’re still warm and serve hot for the best flavor!
