Ingredients
- 1 1/2 tsp garlic powder
- 1 1/2 tsp onion powder
- 1 1/2 tsp paprika
- 1-2 tsp cayenne pepper
- 1 tsp dried oregano
- 1/2-1 tsp sea salt flakes
- 3/4 tsp freshly ground black pepper
- 1/2 tsp dried thyme
- 6 ears fresh sweet corn
- Frying oil
Instructions
- Start by preheating your frying oil or air-fryer. For both, you can heat the oil until it has reached 380ºF (190ºC).
- Make the Cajun spice mix. Combine all of the spices and herbs and mix them well so the flavors are evenly distributed. Set it aside.
- Next, prepare the corn. Remove the husks and take off any stringy pieces.
- Cut each ear of corn into 4 pieces. If you have very large pieces, you can cut them into more or smaller sections.
- Once the oil is heated, add two to three pieces of corn at a time. Leave them to fry for about 2-4 minutes or until they are crispy and golden brown in color.
- Remove the corn from the oil and leave them to drain on a couple of pieces of paper towel. Repeat the process with all of the corn pieces.
- When the corn is drained of excess oil, place it in a large mixing bowl. Drizzle it with butter and add the Cajun seasoning mix. Give the pieces a good toss so that they are covered well.
- Serve your fried corn immediately while they are still hot.
