As the fritters can be served hot or cold, my kids love finding these in their lunchboxes, so I usually cook up a big batch once a fortnight to freeze – they are just so great to have on hand! If guests pop over on the weekend, you can fancy the fritters up by serving them with some smoked salmon, avocado and a poached egg. You can use fresh, canned or even frozen corn to make these gorgeous cheesy fritters, but using fresh corn will give you that delicious crunch. You can find this recipe in my cookbook, The Simple Dinner Edit, which is a collection of 80 easy, delicious dinner ideas and time-saving tips available to order now.
What can I serve these fritters with?
You can jazz these corn fritters up by serving them with smoked salmon or bacon, avocado and a poached egg for a relaxed weekend brunch. Otherwise, they are great with a simple green salad. Instead of the sour cream, you could serve the fritters with a salsa or hot sauce of your choice. Try them with Homemade Coleslaw or Pineapple & Coriander Salsa.
Can I add other vegetables to the fritter mixture?
You sure can! Substitute some of the corn with another vegetable of choice, such as grated zucchini (courgette), sweet potato, carrot or broccoli.
