Ingredients

  • 1 ear of corn, kernels cut off the cob
  • 1 large carrot, grated
  • 1 tbsp garam masala
  • 1 pinch dried fenugreek leaves (optional)
  • ½ tsp ground turmeric
  • 1 tsp baking powder
  • 1½ cups coconut milk
  • ¾ cup whole wheat flour (or substitute besan flour)
  • 3 tbsp vegetable oil, for frying
Sauce
  • 2 tbsp lime pickle (see Note)
  • 6 tbsp coconut yoghurt
To serve
  • Fresh coriander, leaves picked
  • 1 long red chilli, seeds removed, flesh finely diced

Instructions

  1. Add the corn, carrot, spices, baking powder and coconut milk to a large bowl and stir together. Add flour, season with salt and pepper to taste and mix to combine. It should resemble a thick pancake mixture.
  2. Heat the oil in a frying pan over medium heat. Gently spoon a heaped tablespoon of mixture into the oil. Repeat to create more fritters. Cook for 3-5 minutes on each side or until golden brown and cooked through. Cook the fritters in batches until all of the batter has been used. Transfer to a wire rack or a paper towel to cool for a few minutes before serving.
  3. Mix together the yoghurt and lime pickle and place in a serving dish.
  4. Place the fritters on a serving plate and sprinkle over the coriander and chilli. Serve with the lime pickle sauce on the side.
