k Sweetcorn fritters with crispy chorizo Iberico, avocado and poached eggs k
Ingredients (makes 20 serves 12)
3x500g tinned sweetcorn drained
6 free range eggs
1 1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika
6 spring onions finely chopped
3 teaspoon baking powder
300g plain flour
1 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon black pepper
6 ripe avocados
48 slices chorizo Iberico
24 free range eggs
* serve with roasted tomatoes chopped, mixed with a drizzle of olive oil and balsamic vinegar and few drops chipotle tabasco
Method
- Roughly puree ¾ of the sweetcorn (leave the rest whole). Add the eggs, spring onion, paprika and coriander – mix well. Add the flour and baking powder. Season with salt and pepper
- Fry the chorizo in a dry pan and set aside (keep the lovely fat in the pan, add a little olive oil and pour into a small dish – for drizzling later)
- Have a pan of water simmering with a good splash of vinegar for the poached eggs
- Heat a frying pan with a little oil then add a tablespoon of sweetcorn fritter mixture and cook 4 at a time for 3-4 minutes on each side until golden and crispy
- Meanwhile, poach the eggs in the simmering water for 4 minutes (remove with a slotted spoon and gently place on kitchen paper to drain)
- Fan the avocado slices over the fritters and then the crispy chorizo – and top with the poached egg and some micro cress
- Serve with a tablespoon of roasted tomatoes chopped, mixed with a drizzle of olive oil, balsamic vinegar and a few drops of chipotle tabasco
