Corn Fritters with Salsa

These golden sweetcorn fritters with fresh tomato salsa are a wonderful addition to your vegetarian repertoire. Combining the natural sweetness of fresh corn with a hint of savoury cornmeal, they offer a satisfying texture and a vibrant, sun-drenched flavour. The addition of the corn juice extracted from the cob ensures every bite is packed with seasonal intensity, while the zesty lime and coriander salsa provides a sharp, refreshing contrast to the warm, fried cakes.

Perfect for a light weekend brunch or a quick midweek supper, this dish is both nutritious and versatile. The use of pickled jalapeños adds a gentle heat that is easily adjusted to suit your preference. Serve these fritters piled high on a platter with a generous bowl of cool soured cream on the side for a simple yet impressive homemade meal.
