Finely chop the fresh herbs and squeeze out excess moisture by hand.
Mix cornmeal, egg, water, and herbs for 2 minutes until thick.
Rest the batter for 5 minutes so the cornmeal absorbs moisture.
Heat the oil over medium heat for 2 minutes and drop in small spoonfuls of batter.
Fry the fritters for 7 minutes total on both sides.
Move to paper towels, rest for 3 minutes, and serve warm.
💡 Tip: Do not leave the batter too loose; it will hold together better in the pan.
🍽️ Serving suggestion: Serve warm with lemon wedges and a fresh herb salad.
