Ingredients

Method

  1. Grate zucchini and squeeze firmly in a clean towel to remove liquid. Mix with corn, egg, flour, cheddar, baking powder and salt.
  2. Heat a thin layer of oil in a skillet over medium heat. Add heaped spoonfuls of batter and flatten gently.
  3. Cook for 3–4 minutes per side, working in batches. The centers should be set, not wet, and reach 71°C/160°F; lower the heat if outsides brown too quickly.
A little note

Serve with a spoonful of plain yogurt.

Cooking tips

  • Squeeze grated zucchini in a towel until it stops releasing a steady stream of liquid.
  • Keep fritters small and flat so the middle cooks before the crust gets too dark; check the temperature in the method.
