Corn fritters

Ingredients

• 4 corn cobs
• 4 spring onions or 1 small brown onion, chopped
• 1 cup self-raising flour
• 2 eggs
• 1 bunch of coriander and parsley
• 1 tablespoon olive oil

Preparation

1. Remove the green covering from the corn cob.
2. Cut 3cm off one end of the corn cob to make a flat surface.
3. Hold the corn cob vertical with the cut end facing down on the chopping board. Slice down the sides of the cob to remove the kernels.
4. Put the corn kernels in a bowl. Make sure it is no more than half full so you will have plenty of space for mixing.
5. Chop the spring onion and herbs.
6. Mix the onion, herbs and self-raising flour in the bowl with the corn kernels.
7. Make a hole in the centre of the mixture and add in the eggs.
8. Mix it all together until well combined.
9. Heat a nonstick frying pan on medium heat with 1 tablespoon of olive oil.
10. Using a large spoon, pour the corn mixture to make a 5cm circle.
11. Cook until lightly brown on the bottom (2–3 minutes) and then flip.
12. Cook for 2–3 minutes on the other side and then remove onto a plate.
13. Repeat steps 10–12 until all the batter is used up. Add more oil as required.
