Ingredients
- 220g sweetcorn
- 2 tbsp broccoli, chopped very fine
- 1 tbsp cooked and chopped bacon
- 2 tbsp grated mozzarella
- 100g plain flour
- ½ tsp baking powder
- 2 eggs
- ½ tsp salt
- Pinch of black pepper
- Veg oil, for frying
- 2 tbsp creme fraîche
- 1 bunch chives, chopped
1. In a large bowl, combine the sweetcorn kernels, chopped broccoli florets, crumbled bacon, grated cheddar cheese, flour, baking powder, salt and black pepper.
2. In a separate small bowl, whisk the eggs until well beaten. Pour the beaten eggs into the corn mixture and stir until everything is well combined. Heat the vegetable oil in a frying pan over medium heat. Drop spoonfuls of the corn batter into the hot oil, shaping them into fritters using the back of the spoon.
3. Fry the fritters for about two minutes on each side, until they turn golden brown and crispy.
4. Once cooked, transfer the fritters to a paper towel-lined plate to drain any excess oil. Repeat the process with the remaining batter, adding more oil to the pan as needed. Serve with a dollop of crème fraîche and some chopped chives.
