Corn Fritters With Hot ’n’ Sweet Dipping Sauce

Fry up these babies and set them out with the dipping sauce while you’re preparing the ﬁsh tacos, but maybe set aside a couple for yourself, because when you turn around, they’ ll be gone. Using fresh corn is always preferable, but if fresh corn isn’t available, use frozen creamed corn.
