For this recipe, we’ll be using ground flax seeds (sometimes called linseeds) to replace the eggs. When mixed with water and allowed to sit, they help bind ingredients (like eggs). You can use this technique as an egg replacement in baking too!

*If you’re on the 5-night plan mint is a shared ingredient, use half for this dish.

 

Instructions

1

Remove the corn from the cob using a sharp knife, then scrape the cob with a spoon to get every little bit.

Place in a bowl.

Finely dice the red onion and add to the bowl, along with the plant milk.

Bring a small pot of salted water to the boil.

2

Create the flax ‘egg’ by placing the ground flax seeds in a small bowl. Add the warm water, mix and let sit.

 

3

Trim the tops off the beans. Cook in boiling water for a minute then strain and chop into 1cm batons.  Place in a bowl

Cut the apples into slices and add to the bowl.

Add a little of the dressing to prevent the apple from browning.

Rip the mint into the apples and beans

4

Get a large frypan on medium heat.

5

Add the flax seed ‘egg’ to the corn and mix. Add the flour mixture a quarter at a time until the batter comes together and is still wet (you probably won’t need it all). Add a pinch of salt. Mix well, taste a little and add more salt, as needed.

6

Once the pan is hot, add a good splash of oil. Add a few tablespoons of the mixture and flatten into a fritter. They will take about 3 to 4 minutes on each side. Don’t flip them until you can see some air/oil bubbling through the centre (like a pancake). Once cooked, place on a paper towel.

7

Cut the lettuce into quarters and break into individual leaves. Tip the remaining dressing over the apple and bean mix, then add the pumpkin seeds and a pinch of salt.

Put the apple and bean filling between layers of lettuce, stacking them up.

Serve with fritters and salad with salsa on the side.
