    1. In a bowl whisk together well the cornmeal, the flour,the baking pwdr, the cayenne, the salt, and the cumin, whisk in the lowfat milk and the yolk, and stir in the Cheddar and the beans. In another bowl beat the whites till they hold soft peaks and fold them into the Cheddar mix thoroughly.

Working in batches, drop heaping Tbsp. of the batter into the skillet, spreading them slightly, fry the fritters for 1 minute on each side, or possibly till they are golden, and let them drain on paper towels. Serve the fritters with the lowfat sour cream and the tomato salsa.
