Add the corn, red pepper, green onion, and hot sauce to the batter.
Cover with plastic wrap and allow to rest in the refrigerator for at
least an hour and no more than 24 hours.
When you are ready to use the batter:
Fill the Cuisinart
™
Deep Fryer with vegetable oil to the maximum
line. Preheat to 375˚F. While the oil is heating, place the egg white
in a separate mixing bowl and beat until stiff but not dry peaks
form. Carefully fold the white into the batter in 2 additions, using a
large rubber spatula. Be sure to completely incorporate the two.
When oil is ready, lower the basket in the oil. Carefully spoon ¼
cup of batter at a time in to the oil. Fry in batches – do not
overcrowd – for a total of 4 to 6 minutes, turning fritters halfway
through cook time. Lift basket and let the oil drain out. With a pair
of tongs, place on layered paper towels to drain, season with salt
and serve.
