Method

step 1
Add the sweetcorn (140 g) to a food processor and briefly blitz to break up. Add the lime zest (1), curry powder (3 tsp), coriander (1 bunch) and egg (1) and blitz again briefly to mix. Transfer to a bowl, stir in the crab (200 g), spring onions (4) and plain flour (2 tbsp) and season with salt and pepper to taste.
step 2
Preheat the oven to 140°C/120°C fan/gas mark 1 and line a plate with kitchen paper.
step 3
Heat a splash of oil in a non-stick frying pan over a medium-high heat. Use two dessert spoons to form the mixture into fritters, around 1.5cm thick, and drop these into the pan. Use the back of a spatula to press them down slightly and shape into circles, helping them to keep their shape.
step 4
Working in batches, pan-fry the fritters for 1-2 minutes on each side until golden brown. Transfer the cooked fritters to the lined plate and keep warm in the oven.
step 5
Toss the watercress (80 g) in the lemon oil (1/2 tbsp). Serve the fritters with the lemony dressed watercress and mango chutney (4 tbsp) on the side.
