3eggs, beaten
100mlmilk
300g tinof sweetcorn, drained
4-6spring onions, chopped, or ½ red onion, finely chopped

Method

Beat together the flour, baking powder, chilli powder, eggs and milk until you have a smooth batter. Stir in the sweetcorn, onion, coriander or parsley and some seasoning.

Heat a little olive oil in a non-stick frying pan or pancake pan. Drop 2 tablespoons of batter per fritter into the pan and cook as many as will fit comfortably for a couple of minutes until the bases are golden. Carefully turn over and cook for a further 2 minutes, again until the bases are golden.

Keep warm while you continue with the remaining batter, adding more oil to the pan as you go.

All sorts of things can be served with the pancakes, such as: * Crispy fried bacon. * Roasted peppers. * Smoked salmon. * Fried chorizo or salami. * Cooked prawns. * Grilled halloumi cheese. * Sliced avocado or guacamole. * Pickled chillies and gherkins. * Sour cream or crème fraîche. * Sweet chilli dipping sauce. * Tomato ketchup.
