Wild Rice Corn Muffins Food

WILD RICE-CORN MUFFINS

Steps:

• Heat oven to 400°. Spray 12 medium muffin cups, 2 1/2x1 1/4 inches, with cooking spray, or line with paper baking cups. Mix milk, oil and egg product in large bowl.
• Stir in flour, sugar, cornmeal, baking powder and salt all at once just until flour is moistened. Fold in wild rice and cranberries. Divide batter evenly among muffin cups.
• Bake 20 to 25 minutes or until golden brown. Immediately remove from pan. Serve warm.

CRISPY RICE CORN FRITTERS

Steps:

• In a medium bowl, stir together the rice, green onions, corn, cheddar, pimentos and basil. In another medium bowl, whisk together the eggs, paprika, salt and pepper, then pour over the rice mixture and stir to combine. Let the mixture sit for 5 minutes.
• Meanwhile, fill a large cast-iron skillet with 1/4 inch of oil and heat the oil over medium-high heat until it shimmers. Line a baking sheet with paper towels and set it nearby.
• Scoop 1/4 cup of the rice mixture, pressing it down lightly in the measuring cup, then turn it out into the hot oil and lightly flatten it. (You can cook 3 or 4 at a time, depending on the size of your skillet.) Fry for 1 1/2 to 2 minutes, until browned underneath. Take care to not move the fritters around after you first add them to the pan so they stay intact while they cook. Gently flip the fritters and cook for another 2 to 2 1/2 minutes. Transfer to the paper towel-lined baking sheet to drain and sprinkle with a bit of salt while warm. Serve with a dollop of sour cream or with the Green Goddess Dip.
• In a food processor, combine the parsley, mint, basil, chives, sour cream, mayonnaise, lemon zest, lemon juice, cream cheese, salt and pepper and process for 3 minutes, stopping and scraping down the sides to make sure all the ingredients are fully incorporated. Taste and add more salt and pepper, if needed. Transfer to a bowl.
