Ingredients
2 cups of corn kernels (drained if using tinned)
2 cups of grated zucchini
1 cup of self-raising flour
1 medium brown onion (finely chopped)
4 rashers of streaky bacon (sliced and diced)
1 large egg (lightly beaten)
125-200mls of milk
2-4 tbsp olive oil (for frying)
Salt and pepper to taste
Optional - chilli flakes
Directions
Fry chopped onion and bacon pieces until slightly browned.
Set aside to cool.
In a large bowl, add all remaining ingredients including onion/bacon mixture once cooled. Quantity of milk you add depends on the consistency of the mixture you desire. Mix thoroughly.
In a large frying pan, over a moderate heat, heat the olive oil.
Drop large spoonfuls of the mixture into the oil and cook until golden (approx. 3-5 mins) and then turn and cook the other side.
Drain on absorbent paper.
