 1 and 3/4 cup all-purpose flour
 3 teaspoons baking powder

 1/2 teaspoons salt
 1 egg, slightly beaten
 1 cup milk
 1 tablespoon melted shortening
 2 cups whole kernel corn
oil for frying (enough for about a 3/4 inch depth in your frying pan)

. Combine all of the ingredients except the corn, blending until smooth.

 Add the corn and mix well.

 In a large skillet, heat the oil until very hot. Place the handle of a wooden spoon or other utensil into the oil. You should see bubbles rise around the wooden handle immediately. If not wait for oil to get hotter.

 Drop the batter by the tablespoon into the hot grease for ball shaped fritters or flatten into patties for flat shape patties.

 Fry until browned on both sides, Serve Hot!
