METHOD


1. MAKE THE FRITTERS | 5 mins

  • Whilst they are grilling take a mixing bowl and beat the egg and milk together.

  • Fold in the flour, worm powder, sliced spring onions and chopped coriander, and season well with salt and pepper.


2. MAKE DRESSING & COLESLAW | 15 mins

  • In a separate bowl mix together all of the ingredients for the dressing and stir well to combine.

  • Take half of the dressing and split it between two small pots for the dipping sauce, with the other half mix in your coleslaw ingredients and stir well.


3. FRY THE FRITTERS | 10 mins

  • Once the corn is grilled cut the kernels off the cobs carefully and mix them into the batter.

  • Fry the fritters in a frying pan with a little oil until golden brown on both sides. This mix will make 6 fritters.
