Steps:

  • Saute 1/2 bunch asparagus (trimmed and thinly sliced) and 3/4 cup frozen fire-roasted corn in olive oil in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat until crisp-tender, 5 minutes. Transfer to a large bowl; let cool. Stir in 2 beaten eggs, 3/4 cup grated pepper jack, 1/4 cup flour and a big pinch of salt. Heat 2 tablespoons olive oil in the skillet over medium heat. Drop the batter (about 2 tablespoons per fritter) into the skillet, gently flatten and cook until golden, about 3 minutes per side.

Time 45m

Yield Makes 16

Number Of Ingredients 13

vegetable oil , for frying
250g fine asparagus , cut into 3cm pieces
2 large courgettes , cut into matchsticks
140g plain flour
1 tsp baking powder
1 tsp paprika
1 tsp chilli flakes
1 large egg
100ml sparkling water
50ml white wine vinegar
2 tbsp golden caster sugar
thumb-sized piece ginger , finely chopped
4 large ripe tomatoes , finely chopped

Steps:

  • Heat enough oil to come 2.5cm up the side of a large, deep frying pan. Put the asparagus and courgettes in a large bowl. Whisk the remaining ingredients together to make a batter. Pour it over the vegetables with some seasoning, then mix.
  • Use a large spoon to drop bhaji-sized spoonfuls of the mixture into the hot oil - you'll have to do this in batches. Cook for 3 mins, until golden brown, then flip over and cook for another 2 mins. Drain on kitchen paper. Leave to cool before packing into containers.
  • To make the chutney, pour the vinegar and sugar into a saucepan and put over a medium heat to dissolve the sugar. Add the ginger and tomatoes, then turn up the heat and boil for 10 mins until thickened. Cool completely before storing in a tub.

ASPARAGUS FRITTERS



Asparagus Fritters image

Categories     Bread     Fry     Asparagus     Boil

Yield makes 10 to 12 fritters

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 bunches medium asparagus spears, peeled at the base (about 22 spears)
5 large eggs
1/2 cup grated Grana Padano or Parmigiano-Reggiano
1/2 small onion, finely chopped
1/4 cup fine dry bread crumbs
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt, plus more for seasoning
Vegetable oil, for frying

Steps:

  • Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil. Add the asparagus spears, and cook until tender but not mushy, about 8 minutes. Drain, and rinse under cold water to cool them down. Drain and dry the spears, and cut into 1/2-inch pieces.
  • Whisk together the eggs, grated cheese, onion, bread crumbs, flour, and salt in a large bowl. Stir in the asparagus pieces.
  • Heat 1/2 inch vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium heat. (The oil is ready when a drop of batter sizzles on contact.) Drop 1/4-cup rounds of the asparagus batter into the hot oil, flattening if necessary, to make flat cakes. Cook until golden on the underside, about 2 minutes, then flip, and fry until the fritters are cooked through, about 2 minutes more. Drain the fritters on paper towels, and season with salt.
