• Bring a large pot of water to a rolling boil over high heat and plunge the corn into it. Cover, and when the corn returns to a boil, turn off the heat. Let the corn sit for 5 minutes.
• Using tongs, lift out the corn and rinse with cold water to cool. Scrape the kernels off the cob, and put them into the work bowl of a food processor. Add the eggs and flour, and process in short pulses until the mixture is still coarse in texture but even in color and well-combined. Stir in the sugar, cumin if making plain corn cakes, and salt.
• Rub a little olive oil over the surface of a heavy nonstick pan or griddle, and heat until a bit of batter dropped on the surface bubbles in the center and browns on the bottom.
• If making plain corn cakes, pour 3 tablespoons of batter into the pan or onto the griddle. When bubbles form on the surface and the bottom has browned, about 3 to 4 minutes, flip it over (using a nonmetallic spatula) to brown the other side, about 3 to 4 minutes more. Transfer to a warm plate and cover with foil to keep warm, and repeat until you've used up all the batter.

Steps:

• First, make the salsa by mixing together all the ingredients. Season and put in the fridge while you make the sweetcorn cakes.
• For the cakes, put the cottage cheese and eggs in a large mixing bowl, whisk together until smooth, then stir in the sweetcorn, coriander and garlic. Fold the flour, spices and bicarbonate into the batter and season.
• Heat 1 tsp sunflower oil in a non-stick frying pan. When the oil is hot, spoon 3 tbsp of the batter mixture into the pan for each cake - you should be able to cook 3 cakes at a time. Fry for 3-4 mins until golden brown on the underside, then flip over and cook for another 3-4 mins or until golden and cooked through. Repeat until all the batter is used up, putting the cooked cakes in a low oven to keep warm while you fry each batch.
• Bring a large pan of water to the boil, then turn down until barely boiling. Crack one egg at a time into a small bowl, then gently slide into the water. Cook the eggs for about 4 mins until the whites are firm but the yolks are still runny, then remove from the water with a slotted spoon.
