Sweetcorn and Courgette Brunch Fritters

  • 1 tin of sweetcorn, drained
  • 2 chopped spring onions
  • 50g grated courgette
  • 1 tsp smoked paprika
  • 50g self-raising flour
  • 1 beaten egg
  • 40ml milk
  • 1 lime, juice only
  • 4 tbsp sweet chilli sauce
  • 1 tbsp veg oil
  • Salad leaves, to serve
  • Mix together the courgette, sweetcorn, spring onions, flour, paprika, egg, milk and some seasoning in a large bowl, and set aside for 15 mins. Mix the lime juice and chilli sauce in a bowl, and set aside too.
  • Heat the oil in a large pan, and spoon in 4 x burger-sized heaps of the fritter mix. Fry for 4 mins, or until golden-brown underneath, then flip and fry for a further 3 mins. Drain on kitchen paper, and serve with salad leaves, your chilli and lime dipping sauce, and a poached egg if you fancy it.
