INGREDIENTS
For Corn Fritters:
150 gm corn on the cob
1 small onion, chopped
2 garlic cloves
2 green chilies
1 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp baking soda
1 Tbsp polenta
1 Tbsp besan (gram flour)
1 Tbsp maida
1/2 tsp cumin powder
1 Tbsp olive oil
4-5 Tbsp of vegetable oil for frying
1 big pinch smoked paprika
1 tsp parsley, chopped
2 Tbsp milk
1 tsp red chilly powder
For the Sauce:
1 red bell pepper
Salt and pepper to season
2-3 tsp of olive oil
1-2 tsp of red wine vinegar
1 pinch of smoked paprika
2-3 cloves of garlic
METHOD
If using corn on the cob, cut the corn kernels.
If using frozen corn then defrost.
In a pan, sweat chopped onions, garlic, corn kernels and chilies for 2 minutes.
Transfer this into a food processor with polenta, maida, besan, baking powder, baking soda, cumin powder and paprika blits to make a stiff dough. Add a little milk if to dry.
Shape this mix into small balls and deep fry until crispy brown.
Serve with a roasted bell pepper sauce.
For the Sauce:
Rub the red bell pepper with salt, pepper and olive oil. Roast in the oven at 180 degrees
Celsius or char on a grill.
Transfer into a bowl and cover with cling film.
This will crinkle the skin and make it easier to peel off.
Slice into two, de-stem and de-seed.
Using a food processor, puree the peppers along with garlic, salt, pepper, white pepper and
paprika into a thick luscious sauce.
