1 teaspoon baking powder
Salt and white pepper, to taste
2 eggs
1 cup milk
2 cups canned sweet corn kernels, drained
1/2 cup grated cheddar cheese

1/4 cup picked parsley leaves
1 tablespoon extra virgin olive oil
200g sour cream or natural yoghurt, for serving
Combine flour, cornflour, baking powder and seasonings in a bowl. Whisk eggs and milk together, add to the dry ingredients and whisk to combine. Batter will be thick.
Add corn, cheese and three of the spring onions to the batter and stir until just combined. Mixture will be stiff.
Heat a non-stick frypan with a little oil. Place lightly oiled 8cm heart shaped cutters in frypan and spoon 2 heaped tablespoonfuls of batter in each. Fry until golden before turning over and repeating on other side. Drain on absorbent paper.
Combine tomatoes, avocado, extra spring onion, parsley and oil in a bowl to make a salsa.
Serve fritters topped with salsa and a generous dollop of sour cream.
