Ingredients

100g tinned sweetcorn
75g cold mashed potato
50g carrot, peeled and grated
50g courgette, grated
4 spring onions, diced
½ clove garlic, crushed
25g Parmesan cheese, grated
1 tbsp sweet chilli sauce
40g self-raising flour
2 medium British Lion eggs
2 tbsp sunflower oil

Poached egg

2 medium British Lion eggs
1 tsp white wine vinegar

Method

Puree half of the sweetcorn in a food mixer.
Beat the eggs in a mixing bowl. Add the sweetcorn puree and the remaining fritter ingredients, except the oil.
Heat the oil in a frying pan. Take spoonfuls of the mixture and fry them for 2 to 3 minutes on each side until lightly golden. Do this in two batches. Set aside and keep warm.
Bring a pan of water to the boil and add the vinegar. Lower the heat to a gentle simmer.
Crack an egg into a bowl. Stir the water to create a gentle whirlpool and slowly tip the egg into the centre. Repeat for the second egg.
Poach each egg for 3 to 4 minutes, then lift each egg out with a slotted spoon and drain on kitchen paper.
For each portion, stack 4 fritters and add your egg topper.
