Super Sweetcorn Fritters
A family favourite, sweetcorn fritters are an easy breakfast or snack that you can whip together on those days where life is a little hectic.
Ingredients
- 2 cups corn kernels fresh, canned or frozen
- 3 spring onions finely chopped
- 1 small red pepper finely chopped
- 4 eggs separated
- 3/4 cup self raising flour
- 1/2 tsp baking soda
- 1 pinch salt and pepper
- 25 grams butter
- 2 tbsp olive oil
Instructions
- Mix together corn, spring onion and red capsicum in a bowl.
- Stir in the egg yolks then flour and baking soda. Season generously with salt and pepper.
- In a separate bowl beat the egg whites until soft peaks form when the beater is lifted from the whites.
- Gently mix the whites into the corn mixture, taking care not to overmix.
- Melt a knob of butter and a drizzle of oil in a frying pan over a moderate heat, cook large spoonfuls of mixture in batches until golden on both sides and cooked through. Add more oil and butter to the pan as needed.

Notes
- Transferring the fritters to a preheated oven (180°C) helps to make sure the fritters are cooked through and also keep them warm while the others are still cooking.
- To substitute regular flour for the self-raising add 1 rounded teaspoon of baking powder to ¾ cup regular flour.
