Corn Fritters

Corn fritters; a staple childhood favourite, and probably a nostalgic favourite for my parents too. I have clear memories of my mum or dad pulling out this old cookbook (falling apart at the seams sort of thing, no pictures of course) and making fritters for dinner on weeknights. They came together in an acceptable time frame in their granted week-night slot, and while they were cooking, boiled vegetables would be prepared to accompany them. It was a staple and due to their relatively say, un-intimidating flavour for young palettes, they were met with zero qualms - and so the memory replays itself as they were made again... and again. So if you want a trip down memory lane, or just happen to really like corn fritters (no issues there, who doesn't - they're might tasty), or want to deliver a vegan version of this old time favourite to a new generation - then here's your recipe!

Ingredients

Method

  1. In a large bowl combine the vegan egg and polenta together. Add the water and whisk until smooth.
  2. Add the flour, corn kernels, onion, baking soda and salt & pepper stirring until smooth and combined. Add the plant mylk and stir once more to bring it into a thick yet pour-able batter.
  3. Heat a tsp or two in a non-stick frying pan, and cook the fritters for a number of minutes each side, or until golden brown. Repeat to use up the rest of the batter and then enjoy!!
