Sweetcorn Pancakes With Fried Eggs Chorizo Salsa Recipes

FRESH CORN PANCAKES

Steps:

• Whisk together flour, baking powder, sugar, and 1 teaspoon salt in a medium bowl.
• Cut enough kernels from cobs to measure 2 cups. Using back of a knife, scrape pulp from cobs and transfer to a blender with milk and 1/2 cup corn. Purée until smooth, then strain through a sieve into another medium bowl, pressing on and then discarding solids. Whisk in eggs, oil, and butter.
• Add to flour mixture with remaining 1 1/2 cups corn and whisk until just combined.
• Heat a griddle or heavy skillet over medium heat until hot, then lightly brush with oil. Working in batches, pour 1/3 cup batter per pancake onto griddle and cook until bubbles appear on surface and undersides are golden-brown, about 2 minutes. Flip with a spatula and cook until undersides are golden-brown, about 1 minute more. (Reduce heat if pancakes brown too quickly.) Lightly oil griddle between batches if necessary.

• Flip the cakes and cook for about 30 seconds on the other side.

SWEETCORN FRITTERS WITH EGGS & BLACK BEAN SALSA

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6 and line a large baking tray with baking parchment.
• Heat the oil in a small pan and fry the onion and pepper for 5 mins until softened. Meanwhile, mix the flour, spices and baking powder in a bowl. Add the onions, pepper, corn and 2 of the eggs, then mix together well.
• Spoon eight mounds of the mixture onto the baking tray, well spaced apart, then flatten slightly with the back of the spoon. Bake for 20 mins until set and golden.
• Meanwhile, mix together the salsa ingredients and poach 2 of the remaining eggs to your liking. If you're following our Healthy Diet Plan, serve four fritters on the day you make them, topped with half the salsa and the poached eggs. Chill the remaining fritters for another day. Reheat them in a pan or microwave and serve with 2 more poached eggs and the remaining salsa.
