Corn Fritters

• 4 ears corn, white, yellow, or a mixture
• ¼ yellow onion, grated

Hold each ear of corn upright, base down, in a shallow bowl. Using a sharp knife, cut straight down between the kernels and the cob, freeing the kernels and rotating the ear a quarter turn after each cut. Transfer the corn kernels to a deep bowl. Add the onion, flour, baking powder, salt, and pepper and stir to mix. Add the egg and cheese and mix well.

Line a platter with paper towels.
