BILL GRANGERS CORN FRITTERS WITH AVOCADO SALSA



Bill Grangers Corn Fritters with Avocado Salsa image

These are the legendary Bill Granger Corn Fritters with Avocado Salsa. The extra step that makes these corn fritters really special is blending some of the corn and cilantro (coriander) into the batter - it makes the whole fritter truly taste of corn, rather than just bursts of it when you bite into kernels. This recipe makes 12 fritters and serves 4.

Time 25m

Number Of Ingredients 17

3 cups (525g / 18oz) fresh corn kernels (~ 3 large corn cobs)
1 small red onion chopped
2 Eggs
1/4 cup cilantro/coriander leaves and some stems ((lightly packed))
1 tsp sea salt
Freshly ground Black pepper
1 cup plain flour
1 tsp baking powder
3 tbsp olive oil
1 large ((or 2 small) ripe avocado, stone removed and diced)
1 1/2 tomatoes (, seeded and diced (about 3/4 cup, diced))
2 tbsp coriander/cilantro (, roughly chopped)
2 tbsp lemon or lime juice
2 tbsp finely chopped spring onions scallions or red onion
1 dash Tabasco sauce (, optional)
1/2 tsp sea salt
Freshly ground Black pepper

Steps:

  • Turn on the oven to very low - just to keep the fritters warm.
  • Place 2 cups of the corn kernels and the onion, eggs, coriander, salt and pepper in a bowl and whizz with a stick blender until most of the corn is pureed (but still lumpy, not completely smooth). You can also do this step in a blender or food processor.
  • Stir through remaining corn, flour and baking powder until just combined.
  • Heat 1 tablespoon of the oil in a skillet/fry pan over a medium high heat.
  • When the oil is hot, drop 2 heaped tablespoons of mixture per fritter into the pan and cook in batches for 1 1/2 minutes each side, or until golden.
  • Transfer to a baking tray and keep warm in the oven while you are making the rest of the fritters.
  • To serve, stack 3 corn fritters on each plate and top with avocado salsa and extra cilantro/coriander leaves if desired.

This is my daughters favourite corncake recipe. It is served with avocado salsa which I dont bother with - just a sprinkle of cinnamon sugar. I also do not bother with the blender - I just mix it all together and I used wholemeal flour.
