Sweetcorn Fritters Recipes

Steps:

• Sift flour, baking powder, salt and pepper to taste into a bowl.
• Add egg, mixing to combine.
• Stir in sweetcorn.
• Heat oil in a frying pan.
• Drop tablespoonsful of corn mixture into pan.
• Cook until golden then turn and cook the other side.
• Drain on absorbent paper.
• Serve hot.

Steps:

• Whisk flour and baking powder into a bowl and mix in corn kernels. Whisk egg yolks with cream in a small bowl and stir into the corn mixture; season with salt and black pepper. Beat egg whites with an electric mixer until fluffy and stiff peaks form in a separate bowl. Gently fold egg whites into the batter, retaining as much volume as possible.
• Pour vegetable oil into a deep heavy skillet to a depth of 3 inches. Heat to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
• Drop fritters into the hot oil, 2 to 3 tablespoons at a time, and cook until golden brown, 2 to 3 minutes per side. Drain fritters on paper towels and serve drizzled with cane syrup.

Steps:

• In a medium bowl, mix the corn, onion, chile if using, garlic, parsley and yeast flakes. Stir in the flour and baking powder. Gradually stir in the milk, mixing to combine all the ingredients. Season with a pinch of salt and pepper and stir in the lemon juice.
• Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a large sauté pan over medium-high heat. To check the heat, drop a test piece of batter in, and you should hear a sizzle in the pan.
• Spoon 1 tablespoon of the corn mixture into the pan for each fritter, leaving a little space between them so they don't stick together. Pat each fritter down with the back of the spoon so it is flatter and easier to cook on both sides. Fry until golden brown on the first side, about 2 minutes, then flip to brown the other side, about 2 minutes more.
• Cook the fritters in batches, using 1 tablespoon of oil for each batch, until all the corn mixture has been cooked.
• Serve with the warmed sweet chili sauce for dipping.

Steps:

• Whisk 3/4 cup flour, 1 teaspoon kosher salt and 1/4 teaspoon each baking powder and pepper in a bowl. Whisk 1/2 cup milk and 2 eggs in another bowl; stir in the flour mixture. Add 2 cups corn, 1/4 cup each chopped cilantro and scallions, 1 chopped jalapeno and the zest and juice of 1/2 lime. Cook 1/4 cupfuls in a skillet with olive oil, 2 minutes per side. Serve with Greek yogurt.

Steps:

• Heat 1 tablespoon of the oil in a non-stick pan, add the onion and cook, stirring, for 5 minutes, until beginning to soften. Add the chilli and garlic and cook for a further minute. Remove from the heat and set aside.
• Put the sweetcorn in a mixing bowl and lightly mash with a potato masher to break down the kernels a little.
• Add the onion mixture, spring onions and egg to the mixing bowl.
• Season to taste with salt and pepper and stir to mix.
• Sift in the flour and baking powder and stir to mix. The mixture is quite runny at this stage but don't worry- it firms up nicely when cooked!
• Heat 1 tablespoon of the oil in the non-stick pan.
• Drop four heaped spoonfuls of the sweetcorn mixture in once the oil is hot. Flatten them using a spatula until roughly 1cm/ 1/2inch thick- do this gently so the mixture does not stick to the spatula and break up the fritter.
• Fry the fritters for 3-4 minutes, or until golden and crisp on the underside. Flip them using the spatula and fry the other side for 3-4 minutes until done.
• Remove the fritters from the pan and keep warm.
• Wipe the pan with kitchen paper and repeat from step 6 to cook the remaining fritters.
• Serve drizzled with sweet chilli sauce or your favourite sauce/ dip. You could also garnish with chopped fresh coriander leaves.

Steps:

• Mix the sweetcorn, spring onions, courgette, paprika, flour, beaten egg, milk and some seasoning in a large bowl and set aside.
• Put a large pan of water on to boil. In a bowl, mix the chilli sauce with the lime juice and set aside.
• Heat the oil in a large, non-stick pan and spoon in four burger-sized mounds of the fritter mixture, spaced apart (you may need to do this in two batches). When brown on the underside, turn over and cook for 3 mins more until golden.
• Meanwhile, poach the eggs in the simmering water for 2-3 mins until cooked and the yolks are runny. Remove with a slotted spoon. Serve the fritters topped with a poached egg, mixed leaves and a drizzle of the chilli dressing.
