Method

Step 1

Rub the sweetcorn with a little oil and griddle or grill for 8-10 minutes until slightly charred. Cut the kernels off with a sharp knife. Reserve one half and place the other half in a food processor and blitz until pureed.

Step 2

Mix together the flours, baking powder with some salt and pepper in a large bowl and make a well in the centre.

Step 3

Add the eggs and begin to mix with a balloon whisk, gradually adding in the milk to form a smooth batter.

Step 4

Stir in the pureed sweetcorn, the sweetcorn kernels, coriander and chilli.

Step 5

Heat a little oil in a large frying pan and drop four large tablespoons of batter in, cook for 2 minutes each side until golden and cooked through. Repeat to make 12 pancakes.

Step 6

Stack three pancakes up on a plate and drizzle over some chilli sauce and serve with a salad.
