Weights are estimates. Together, the ingredients weigh about 560 g before cooking, which is about 140 g per serving.
Steps
In a large bowl, mix the drained sweet corn, chopped shallot, red chili, kaffir lime leaves, salt, and pepper.
Add the crumbled paneer cheese, wheat flour, cornstarch, and egg to the mixture.
Incorporate all ingredients until well combined and let the mixture rest in the refrigerator for 10 minutes.
While the mixture rests, heat oil in a skillet over medium-high heat.
Place a tablespoon of the mixture into the hot oil, flattening it slightly to form a fritter.
Fry for approximately 1 minute per side or until crispy and dark golden brown.
Remove from the oil and immediately sprinkle with Chaat Masala.
Garnish with extra red chili and sliced spring onion before serving.
Notes
Resting in the refrigerator is key for the flour and cornstarch to hydrate so the fritters don't fall apart during frying. If you can't find paneer, you can substitute it with a firm cheese that doesn't melt easily, such as queso canasta or firm queso fresco.
