    Ingredients

    1 small courgette (about 200g), grated

    5 spring onions, finely sliced

    2 x 30g packs fresh coriander, a few leaves reserved for garnish, remaining leaves and stalks

    finely chopped

    2 green chillies, deseeded and finely chopped

    2 x 326g tins Asda Sweetcorn in Water, drained

    100g self-raising flour

    3 eggs, beaten

    2 tbsp groundnut oil

    120g bag Asda Strong & Peppery Watercress, Spinach & Rocket (to serve)

    30g Asda Light Mayonnaise

    150g Asda Fat Free Greek Style Yogurt

    2 tbsp sriracha sauce

    1 lime, cut into wedges

    Method

    1
    Preheat the oven to 150°C/130°C fan/gas 2. Put the courgette into a sieve over a sink and squeeze out as much water as you can. Transfer to a large bowl along with the spring onions, chopped coriander, chillies, sweetcorn and season well. Stir in the flour until everything is coated and mixed thoroughly, then stir through the eggs until just combined.
    2
    Heat 1–2 tsp groundnut oil in a large non-stick frying pan on a medium-low heat. Carefully drop 1 large serving spoon of the mixture into the pan and flatten very slightly so it is about 8cm in diameter, 2cm thick. Using a spoon, tidy up the edges and tuck in any sweetcorn and cook for 3–4 mins until the underside is golden. Carefully flip and lightly press the top with a spatula and cook for a further 3–4 mins until golden and firm to the touch.
    3
    Depending on the size of your pan, fry 2 or 3 at a time. Once each fritter is cooked, transfer to a baking tray and keep warm in the oven while you cook the remaining, using the oil as needed.
    4
    For the sriracha mayo, mix the mayonnaise and yogurt in a bowl, then swirl through the sriracha. Serve the fritters topped with the lime wedges, reserved coriander leaves, sriracha mayo and a bowl of green salad leaves on the side.
