This Week’s Recipe... ….these are a favourite of Mr Chapman’s that they make regularly for the little and big kids in his family. These corn fritters make a delicious meal or snack for any time of day. Easy to make, this recipe uses a tin of creamed corn and makes fritters that are crisp on the outside and creamy on the inside.
Easy Corn Fritters Serves: 4
Ingredients:
3/4 cup plain flour 1 tsp baking powder 1 tsp honey (optional) 2 x eggs 1 x 410g tin creamed corn salt/pepper oil for cooking
Method:
1. Put all dry ingredients into a bowl (there's no need to sift). 2. Add corn and eggs. Mix. If you're using honey, add it now. The mixture should be quite thick. 3. Heat oil (medium heat) and drop spoonfuls of mixture into pan, fry until bubbles form or until golden then flip. They puff up so you don't need much, I use either a teaspoon or half a tablespoon of mixture for toddler sized fritters. Notes • You can add cheese, sweet chilli sauce or anything to make it a bit more interesting. • These take next to no time and you can make them in big batches and freeze as well.
