Description

These savory corn fritters are a vibrant, rustic dish that transforms humble ingredients into a crowd-pleasing feast. The golden, crispy exterior gives way to a soft, flavorful interior packed with char-grilled sweet corn, smoky capsicum, salty bacon, and creamy crumbled feta. Topped with refreshing cucumber ribbons and a drizzle of tangy yogurt, they offer a perfect balance of textures and flavors. Ideal for a summer barbecue, a hearty brunch, or a unique side dish for grilled meats, these fritters bring a Mediterranean-inspired twist to classic comfort food. They are easy to prepare, requiring just a few simple steps to achieve restaurant-quality results at home.

Ingredients

Directions

  1. Preheat a char-grill or grill pan to high heat.
  2. Brush the corn cobs lightly with oil and grill for about 5 minutes, turning occasionally, until tender and slightly charred.
  3. Allow the corn to cool until manageable, then stand them upright on a cutting board and slice the kernels off with a sharp knife.
  4. In a large bowl, whisk the eggs and milk together until smooth.
  5. Add the self-raising flour to the egg mixture and stir until just combined, leaving a few lumps for texture.
  6. Fold in three-quarters of the corn kernels, the chopped capsicum, bacon, and crumbled feta.
  7. Heat half of the remaining oil in a large frying pan over moderate heat.
  8. Drop tablespoon-sized mounds of the batter into the pan, cooking in batches to avoid crowding.
  9. Fry for about 4 minutes per side until golden brown and cooked through. Add more oil between batches if necessary.
  10. Transfer cooked fritters to a serving platter lined with paper towels.
  11. Top the warm fritters with the reserved corn kernels, remaining capsicum, and cucumber ribbons.
  12. Drizzle with natural yogurt, season with black pepper, and serve immediately with lime wedges.
