Method
- Preheat the grill to medium high. Grill the bacon for 5-8 minutes, turning once, until crisp. Set aside and keep warm in a low oven.
- Sift the flour and baking powder into a bowl. Make a hollow in the centre and add the chilli, the 4 beaten eggs and the buttermilk. Stir well to make a batter, then add the spring onions and corn kernels.
- Heat a splash of sunflower oil in a non-stick pan over a medium heat. Fry spoonfuls of the mixture for 3-4 minutes, then flip over and cook for 3-4 minutes more until golden and cooked. You may need to fry in batches – keep them warm in a low oven.
- Heat a little more oil in the pan if needed, then fry the 4 remaining eggs to your liking. Peel and slice the avocados, then serve with the fritters, topped with the bacon and a fried egg.
