Corn Fritters W Avocado Salsa

Method

Grill corn cobs for 10 minutes on high heat, turning every few minutes to char on each side. Set aside to cool then slice corn off the cob.

In a food processor, pulse together 2/3 of the corn kernels (reserving other 1/3), onion, egg, basil, cumin, salt and pepper until mixture is roughly pureed.

Transfer mixture to bowl. Stir in remaining cup of corn kernels, rice flour, regular flour and baking powder till combined.

Heat a tablespoon of olive oil in large frying pan over medium-high heat. Once hot, drop around 3 tablespoons of batter into the pan per fritter and cook for 2-3 minutes on each side, until golden. Repeat till all batter is used.

Make avocado tomato salsa by mixing all ingredients in a bowl.

Serve corn fritters stacked up, topped with avocado tomato salsa.
