You won’t be surprised to know that Mood Food has changed this Bill Granger inspired recipe from plain white flour to whole meal. Go the grains!!!
 3 cups fresh corn kernels (~ 3 large corn cobs approx. 525g)
 1 red onion, small, chopped into small pieces
 2 eggs
 ¼ cup cilantro/coriander leaves and some stems
 1 tsp sea salt
 1 tsp black pepper, ground
 1 cup wholemeal flour
 3 tbsp olive oil
 1 tsp baking powder
Avocado Salsa
 1 large (or 2 small) ripe avocado, stone removed and diced
 1 ½ tomatoes , seeded and diced (about 3/4 cup, diced)
 2 tbsp coriander , roughly chopped
 1 tbsp lemon juice
 2 tbsp spring onions, finely chopped or red onion
 1 tsp tabasco sauce
 1 tsp black pepper
Optional
 1 bacon round per person, trim visible fat before cooking

1

Turn the oven to 110°c - to keep the fritters warm while you cook the rest.

2

Stand cobs of corn upright and run a knife down the length of the cob to shave off the kernels. Be careful they don't go everywhere! You can try standing them on a very small bowl inside a large bowl, it's not so messy!

3

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.

4

Stir through remaining corn, flour and baking powder until just combined.

5

Heat 1 tablespoon of the oil in a large fry pan over a medium high heat.

6

When the oil is hot, drop 2 heaped tablespoons of mixture per fritter into the pan and cook for 1-2 minutes each side, or until golden. Once each batch is cooked place on a plate and cover with foil and keep in the oven, until all the mixture is cooked.

7

To serve, stack 3 corn fritters on each plate and top with avocado salsa and extra cilantro/coriander leaves if desired.

Optional - Fry 1 x bacon round per person in a frying pan.
