Zucchini, Corn and Chickpea Fritters

Course Breakfast
Servings 12 fritters

Ingredients
  

  • 3 medium zucchini (~500g) trimmed and cut into 3cm pieces
  • 2 spring onions cut into 3cm pieces
  • 400 g can chick peas well drained
  • 3 extra large eggs (~58g/egg) 700g in a box of 12
  • 425 g can corn kernels well drained
  • Salt and pepper to season
  • Olive oil for frying

Instructions
 

  • Put zucchini and spring onions in the Thermomix bowl and chop with the measuring cup (MC) on for 3 seconds | Speed 5; remove to a strainer to drain any excess liquid
  • Rinse and dry out the Thermomix bowl, add chickpeas and eggs and blend into a smooth paste with the MC on for 30 seconds | Speed 8; remove to a mixing bowl
  • Add corn, zucchini, spring onions, salt and pepper to the mixing bowl and stir to combine the ingredients
  • Cook the fritters in batches by heating oil in a large frying pan on medium-high heat then turn down to medium-low heat
  • For 1 fritter, spoon 1/3 cup of the mixture into the pan and level to a 1cm thickness; leave 2cm between each fritter
  • Cook until almost set on the surface (~5 minutes), flip over and cook until both sides are golden brown

Notes

  1. Turn the heat to low if the fritters are browning too quickly
  2. The fritters are still quite fragile so handle with care – when flipping the fritters, tilt the frying pan to the side to stop the edges from folding under
