Ingredients
Corn Fritters
250 g ricotta
2 eggs
125 ml (½ cup) milk
400 g tinned corn, drained
½ cup finely diced red capsicum
¼ cup finely diced red onion
2 tablespoons finely chopped chives
¾ cup self-raising flour

2 ripe avocados, cut into 1 cm cubes
½ red onion, very finely chopped
1 tomato, halved crossways, seeded and finely chopped
¼ bunch coriander, rinsed well and finely chopped
2 teaspoons ground cumin
1 tablespoon sweet chili sauce
1 tablespoon lemon juice
Method
-
To make the avocado smash, place all the ingredients in a bowl and stir to combine. Set aside until needed.
