Corn Nugget



The recipe seemed easy enough:

 Mix a can of corn and a can of creamed corn
Scoop into rounds and freeze
Dip frozen rounds in batter
Fry
Enjoy corn nuggets at home instead of in our default restaurant.

Dipping nuggets in batter. A thicker batter may have made a difference: 


Things started out well: 

Promising looking nuggets: 

A combination of thawing and cheese strands extending past the "batter barrier" led many nuggets to spread... our overall result was something like Scrambled Corn Nugget Fritters...
