Tag: Sweetcorn Fritters

• I have been making these for years but cannot remember where I got the recipe from.
• Originally I used one small carton of natural yoghurt.
• I now buy large pots of yoghurt and I use my 125ml measure instead.
• I always use tinned sweetcorn but you can use frozen sweetcorn, cooked and cooled.
• There are lots of ways to eat these – I often have then with grilled bacon and fried eggs.

Ingredients

• 250g plain flour
• Pinch of salt
• 2 eggs
• 125ml of yoghurt
• 125ml of milk – some extra might be needed.
• 1 tin of sweetcorn (340g) – drained
• ½ teaspoon of turmeric – optional
• Sunflower oil to fry

Method

• Put the flour and salt into a large bowl.
• Make a well in the centre.
• Add the eggs, yoghurt and milk.
• Mix together – a Danish whisk is good for this.

• Aim for a thick batter – add a little more milk if necessary
• Add the sweetcorn and mix again.
• Heat a little oil in a frying pan.
• Drop large tablespoonfuls of the batter into the pan.
• Cook on both sides.
• Keep warm on a plate in the oven whilst making the rest.

Variations

Add some chopped spring onions or chives to the batter or chilli flakes or chopped chilies.
