Campfire Corn Fritters

Pan-fried fritters are great for any meal, and the leftovers keep well for snacks. You can make your own variations on this simple theme, but remember the secret to successful fritters - the oil must be very hot before setting in the batter.

Ingredients:
2 cups corn bread mix
1/2 cup water
1/2 cup canned corn, drained
1/4 cup cooking oil

Directions: Put the corn bread mix in a bowl and, using a fork to blend, gradually add the water. Be careful not to over-blend. The dough should be quite stiff. Add the corn, which should be well drained. Put about one-fourth of the oil in a skillet and heat. Ladle the batter into the hot oil and fry for about 2 minutes, turning once. Serve with syrup, honey or butter. This recipe makes about 12 fritters.Opitinal:Pancake syrup poured over the fritters.
