Add the water and oil and combine with a hand whisk. The consistency should be thick, like heavy cream and be able to coat a spoon. If it is too thick, add a drop more water, too thin, add a little more flour. Set aside.

Heat a pan with vegetable oil until it reaches 180 C or 350 F. Make sure you do not over fill the pan with oil. I use a small saucepan and cook in batches, filling the pan 1/3rd deep with cooking oil.

Whilst the oil is heating up. peel the banana, cut in half and then slice length ways in half so you have 4 pieces. Dip each piece in the batter so it is fully coated and carefully place in the pan, cooking both sides until golden brown. ** To tell if the oil is hot enough, drop a tiny bit of batter, the size of a pea in to the oil. If it sizzles and floats to the top immediately, the oil is hot enough.

Recipe video above. Sweet pops of fresh corn on the inside, very crispy on the outside. These heavenly fritters are light on batter, heavy on the corn – just the way they should be! Makes a lovely meal for 2 with a leafy green salad on the side, or a starter for 4.

Extra Crispy Corn Fritters

flour (, plain / all purpose)

cornflour / cornstarch

tsp baking soda ((or 3/4 tsp baking powder))

tbsp milk ((any type))

corn kernels (, raw (2 cobs) (canned

parmesan (, finely grated)

onions

coriander/cilantro (, roughly chopped (sub more green onion))

Oil spray

Avocado sauce

Sour cream, ketchup ((don’t judge until you’ve tried it!))

Preheat oven to 120°C / 250°F and set a wire rack on a baking tray.

Place flour, cornflour and baking soda in a bowl, mix to combine.

Add egg and milk, mix until incorporated (batter will be lumpy and thick).

Add corn, parmesan, green onions and coriander. Mix until all the corn is evenly coated in batter.

Add enough oil into the skillet so it just covers the base. Heat over medium high heat.

Spray the underside of a spatula with oil (so batter won’t stick when you flatten).

Place 1/4 cup batter into skillet (ice cream scooper with lever is handy), then flatten to 1cm thick. Repeat with 2 or 3 more, but don’t crowd the skillet.

Cook 3 minutes until deep golden and crisp, then flip and cook the other side for 2 – 3 minutes.

Transfer to rack and keep warm in oven. Repeat with remaining fritters, using more oil as necessary.

Serve with sauce of choice for dunking!
