Corn Fritters with Smoked Salmon, Feta and Watercress
The crispy corn fritters not only make this dish a little more substantial but they also make a brilliant compliment to the smoky salmon. The peppery watercress and the tartness of the vinaigrette are perfectly rounded out with the soft creaminess of the feta.
This dish is also great for being a little creative with: think of any other meat or fish that would go well with corn and substitute it for the salmon. Roquette (arugula) also makes a great substitute for the watercress. I know you’ll enjoy this recipe and I hope you enjoy making your own variations of it even more.
This dish is based on our previously published corn fritters recipe.
