Wow... I pride myself on how healthy my kids eat and how unexposed they are to brands and junk. However lately my boy has said at dinner "I want something different" sadly at two he doesn't always know what that is...
So I have come to the point where rather than rushing to throw food on the table (allbeit healthy).. I would push the boat out offering something different...
(Lets face it if we all kept a food journal for a few weeks we would see that most of us are creature of habit with our food!)
Anyway tonight was yummy yummy mini corn frittas. These are credit to Annabel Karmel..wow..thanks!
Ingredients
30g plain / all purpose flour or quarter cup
half tsp baking powder
quarter tsp salt
1 large egg (US extra large)
1 x 200g can sweetcorn, drained (drained weight 170g/1 cup)
1 large or 2 small spring onions, finely sliced
2 tbsp sunflower or canola oil for frying
Method
Put all the ingredients except the oil in the bowl of a food processor and whiz for one minute to make a batter.
Heat a little of the oil in a large frying pan and drop in teaspoonfuls of the batter. Cook for 1 to 1 ½ minutes in batches of 5 until golden on the underside, then carefully turn and cook for a further minute.
You can use the back of a spoon to help push the fritter onto a spatula to make turning easier.
Drain briefly on kitchen paper before serving
Makes 15 mini fritters
Doesn't the ingredients just look yum! (The fact the eggs are home raised helps!)
