Easy Corn Fritters with a Spicy Aioli Sauce

I was surprised at how good these were. I had some left over corn on the cob and decided, what the hell, I’ll try to make fritters.

They were so tasty and the sauce sealed the deal! It was a pretty good alternative breakfast, def make again.

THE SAUCE

A simple mix of sweet, creamy, and spicy. Perfect companion for the crunchy corn fritters.

Add more or less of each ingredient, depending on your tastes. If you don’t have all the ingredients, no worries! The must haves are mayo, honey and sriracha(or any similar hot sauce), the rest is icing on the cake. You could punch it up with other spices if you wanted. Get creative with cayenne pepper, cumin, chili powder or paprika.
