Summer's most delicious fritter

Celebrate summer with this quick and easy recipe for corn fritters.  I mostly use this recipe when we have left over corn since I seem to be the only one who will eat left-overs.  I think I've spoiled my family.

• 1 cup sifted all-purpose flour
• 1 teaspoon baking powder
• 1/2 teaspoon salt
• 1/4 teaspoon white sugar
• 1 cup corn (fresh, frozen, canned-drain)
• 1/4 cup milk
• 1 egg, lightly beaten
• 1 tablespoon safflower oil
• 3 cups oil for frying
• powdered sugar (optional)

1. In a medium bowl, combine flour, baking powder, salt and sugar. Beat together egg, milk, and safflower oil; stir into flour mixture. Mix in the corn kernels.

1. Heat oil in a heavy pot or deep fryer to 365 degrees F (185 degrees C).
2. Drop fritter batter by spoonfuls into the hot oil, and fry until golden. Drain on paper towels.
3. Dust with powdered sugar
