Steps

  1. oven to 220°C. Line two oven trays with baking paper.
  2. Toss kumara, carrot, courgette, parsnip and red onion on both prepared trays with a drizzle of olive oil. Season with salt and pepper and roast for about 25 minutes, or until tender. Toss roasties on tray with pumpkin seeds and cook for a further 5 minutes.
  3. Whisk eggs in a large bowl. Add onion, both types of corn and sweet chilli sauce and mix until combined. Add flour, melted butter, parsley, salt and season with pepper. Fold until just combined (do not over-mix as this will make the fritters tough). Set aside.
  4. In a small bowl, mix all sweet chilli curry cream ingredients together and season with salt and pepper. Set aside.
  5. Heat a drizzle of oil in a nonstick fry-pan on low-medium heat. Dollop heaped dessert spoonful’s of mixture into pan and fry, in batches, for about 3 minutes or until bubbles start to appear on surface. Flip and cook 2–3 minutes until golden and cooked through. Add extra oil as needed.
  6. Push veggies aside and place cooked fritters on oven trays. Return trays to oven for 1–2 minutes to warm through, just before serving. While fritters are warming, shred lettuce then toss on tray with roasties.
  7. Divide roasties salad between plates and top with corn fritters. Top with a dollop of sweet chilli curry cream and squeeze over lemon juice (if desired).
