Corn and mixed herb fritters with tahini-yoghurt sauce

5.00

These fritters are inspired by Iranian herb fritters, which are heavy on the eggs and lighter on the flour than other fritters. They’re great for using up any odds and ends of soft herbs that you have leftover, and we love to combine them with sweetcorn, although you could leave it out if you have lots of herbs. These fritters are topped with a creamy tahini-yoghurt sauce and extra herbs for good measure.
