Instructions: 1 Heat the oil for deep-frying in a heavy-based saucepan. Crack the egg into a bowl, and mix in the flour and baking powder together to form a batter.

2 Combine the corn kernels with the thyme leaves and add to the batter.

Deep-fry heaped spoonfuls of batter in the oil until golden. Drain well on kitchen paper. Serve with plantain salad.
