Spicy Thai Corn Cakes

Me and my friend Jimmy went to Thai Country Cafe in the Del Mar Loop and tried the Thai Corn Cakes. It was the bomb. And ever since that Jimmy keeps on hounding me to make them...LOL. So he found this recipe!

Corn is a staple used widely throughout Thailand, whether it's sold by streetside vendors that cook it on a charcoal grille, added to ice cream (really!) or spooned onto pizza. Here's an enjoyable fried corn snack, which would most likely be served with a sweet chile sauce for dipping. This is a vegetarian recipe.

Ingredients:
2 cups fresh corn (about 4 ears)
1 egg
1/4 cup sliced long green beans
1 tbsp kaeng kua curry paste
2-3 tbsp rice flour
2 tbsp thin (light) soy sauce
1 tsp salt
2 cups vegetable oil
3 tbsp wheat flour

Method:
Blend all ingredients (except vegetable oil and wheat flour) and knead to a uniform texture. Form the dough into 1 inch thick balls, flatten slightly, roll in the wheat flour, and fry in hot vegetable oil. Remove from oil when golden brown, let excess oil drip onto a paper towel, serve and enjoy.
