Ingredients
410g tin corn kernels, drained
2 eggs, beaten
½ small broccoli, finely chopped
Handful fresh parsley or basil leaves, finely chopped
¼ cup grated cheese
2 small or 1 large spring onion, finely sliced
1 cup self raising flour
Rice bran oil
Relish or sour cream, to serve (optional)
Method
In a food processor or blender, pulse half of the corn kernels and eggs until the corn is lightly pureed. Transfer to a mixing bowl.
Add the remaining corn kernels, chopped broccoli, herbs, cheese and spring onions to the egg mixture and stir until fully combined. Season with salt and pepper, then add the flour and mix until just combined; ensuring not to overmix.
Bring a nonstick frying pan to a medium heat. Drizzle with oil, then once hot, dollop spoonfuls of batter into the pan. Cook for 2-3 minutes on each side (depending on size) or until golden brown and cooked through.
Once all the fritters are cooked, enjoy warm or leave to cool before storing in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 4 days.
