So corn is totally awesome. Don't you think? I mean, yellow is the happiest colour. And with that here is a super yummy corn recipe for your weekend. I posted this ages ago but I've improved the recipe & cooked it again yesterday so here it is:
Corn Fritters
(makes about 12)
Ingredients
1.5 cups Gluten Free SR Flour
1 tsp salt
2 tsps turmeric (or paprika)
2 tsps cumin
2 tsps lemon juice
1 egg
3/4 cup water
4 cups corn kernels (I used 5 fresh cobs. Don't pre cook them. Mixing with canned would work too)
4 shallots, finely diced
salt & pepper, to season
olive oil, for cooking
Method
Throw everything (except olive oil) in a mixing bowl and makes sure it's well combined. The mixture should be think and not very runny. Spoon heaped spoonfuls (dessert size) of the mixture into a medium/hot frying pan. Turn when underside is golden brown.
Serve fritters warm on a bed of rocket, with tzatziki, tomato relish and lots of fresh avocado.
I used store bought *light tzatziki and a GF tomato relish.
Vegan: Omit the egg for just a little more water. I've tried and they still work fine. Use soy unsweetened yoghurt instead of the tzatziki.
Meatlovers: Grill some chicken breast and serve along side the fritters (like I did below for Tom - who also doesn't like avocado)
Gluten Free: You can use pretty much any flour you like. I've used GF and Spelt.
Spices: Last time I used Paprika, this time I didn't have any so used Turmeric and they were just as yummy.
Enjoy!
