Corn Fritters

Ingredients

• 1 cup plain flour
• 1/4 tsp baking powder
• 1 tsp flaky salt
• 1 egg, lightly beaten
• 1 tsp lemon juice
• 3 cobs corn
• 4 spring onions, finely sliced
• 1/3 cup chopped coriander, or soft herb of choice
• neutral oil for shallow frying

Method

Add the flour, baking powder and salt into medium sized bowl, give a quick whisk to mix. Add the egg, lemon juice and 125ml cold water and beat to a batter.

Remove the kernels from the cobs of corn.

Add the corn, spring onions and chopped coriander to the bowl and stir to combine.

Heat about 1 cm oil in a frypan over medium to high heat. When the oil is hot, add the fritter mix, flatten with the back of a spoon. How much mix you add depends on how big you want the fritters.

Cook for 2 to 3 minutes, or until golden brown, then turn and cook the other side.

Remove to drain on a wire rack, this keeps them crisp. I think if you drain on paper towel the bottom sweats and can get soggy. Repeat with remaining mixture.
