- Add the corn and cheese: Fold in the drained canned corn, grated Parmesan, and shredded white cheese until evenly mixed.
- Heat the pan: Heat a non-stick frying pan over medium heat and lightly grease with oil or butter.
- Scoop the batter: Using a scoop or large spoon, drop mounds of the batter onto the hot pan, leaving some space between each fritter.
- Pan-fry the fritters: Fry for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and crispy. Press down slightly with a spatula to flatten as they cook.
