By Hannah Lewry

Serves 6 to 8

Difficulty Easy

Prep Time 30 minutes

Cooking Time 20 minutes

Ingredients

For the fritters:
140 g chickpea flour
2 free-range eggs
1⁄2 cup milk
100 g mature Cheddar cheese, grated
2 T Italian parsley, chopped
1 T chives, chopped
1 t ground turmeric
1 t coriander seeds, crushed
1 t baking powder
Sea salt, to taste
140 g frozen supersweet sweetcorn, thawed
2 - 3 cups sunflower oil, for deep frying

For the salad, mix:

1⁄4 watermelon, cubed
2 green chillies, sliced
2 spring onions, sliced
1 lime, juiced

For serving:

1⁄2 pineapple, cut into matchsticks
1 cup plain yoghurt

Method

1. To make the fritters, mix the flour, eggs, milk, cheese, herbs, spices, baking powder and salt. Fold in the corn.

2. Heat the oil in a saucepan and drop in spoonfuls of batter. Cook until puffed up and golden. Drain
on kitchen paper.

3. Mix the yoghurt and pineapple and serve on the side with the fritters and a watermelon salad.

Cook's note: Keep a supply of frozen sweetcorn in your freezer for emergencies like a sudden need for these moreish fritters – perfect for pleasing the family on a Friday night (just ask Abigail Donnelly), or feeding to guests who pop in for drinks over the weekend.
