  • 1 cup self-raising flour, sifted
  • 1 cup soda water
  • Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper
  • 1 free-range egg white, beaten
  • Sunflower oil, for frying

  • 2 ripe mangoes, chopped
  • 1 x 410 g tin black beans
  • 150 g baby tomatoes, halved
  • 1 red onion, chopped

Method

To make the corn fritters: Mix together the corn, flour and soda water. Season and fold in the egg white.
