Stem, seed and finely chop soaked chiles and mix into dough. Set aside.

Remove leaves and silk from corn. Scrape kernels into a large bowl. Add kernels to dough; add cilantro, sugar, salt and pepper to dough and mix well.

In a large nonstick skillet, heat oil over high heat. Oil your hands and shape sticky dough into 2-inch patties about 1/4 inch thick. Slip as many patties into skillet as will fit comfortably.
