Directions

  1. Make the dipping sauce. Place the soy sauce, oil, tbsp vinegar and the sugar in a small saucepan and heat gently, stirring, to dissolve the sugar. Tip into a bowl and cool. Stir in the remaining ingredients, adding more vinegar to taste.
  2. Using a sharp knife, strip the corn off the cobs. Sift the flour and salt into a large bowl, make a well in the centre and add the egg yolk and half the milk. Beat to make a smooth batter, and gradually work in the remaining milk. Whisk in the oil, season with pepper, then beat in the chilli, spring onions, coriander, lime zest, prawns and corn.
  3. Heat a shallow layer of oil in a non-stick frying pan over a medium heat. Whisk the egg white in a clean bowl until stiff, then fold into the batter. When the oil is hot, add tablespoons of the mixture to make fritters about m/n across.
  4. Cook for about minutes on each side, adjusting the heat so that they don?t brown too quickly. Drain on a kitchen towel and keep warm while you cook the remainder. Stir the dipping sauce again, then serve with the fritters.
