Corn and Zucchini Fritters with Salsa

This dish is fun and reheats will the next day. The fritters are like pikelets, so are also great for the kids. It's a really delicious, and yet simple, meal.

Corn and Zucchini Fritters with Salsa:

Ingredients:

Fritters:

50g butter, melted
1/2 cup milk
3/4 cup plain flour
2 eggs, lightly beaten
210g can creamed corn
240g zucchini, grated coarsely
vegetable oil, for shallow frying

Salsa:

3 medium egg tomatoes, chopped coarsely
2 medium avocados, chopped coarsely
1 small red onion, chopped coarsely
2 Tbsp lime juice (fresh is always best)
2 Tbsp finely chopped fresh coriander

Method:

1. Combine butter, milk, flour and egg in a medium bowl and whisk until smooth. Add corn and zucchini; mix well.

2. Make salsa by combining all ingredients in a small bowl.

3. Heat oil in medium frying pan. Cooked heaped tablespoons of batter about 2 mins each side or until broned both sides and cooked through. Drain on absorbant paper. Serve with salsa.

NOTE: Keep the cooked fritters warm in the oven until serving time. You might also like to try adding a little grated cheddar cheese to the batter.
