Food Technology @ Tamaki College

 LI: To learn how to make corn fritters.



This week at Tamaki College we made corn fritters with salad on the side with Mrs Heka. For this block we listened to Mrs Heka who gave us a set of instructions to help us create our dishes. To make these fritters I worked with Victoria.

First we got our ingredients and equipment. To make the batter for the fritters I got 2 eggs and 1/4 of a cup of milk which is known as wet ingredients, and Victoria got the dry ingredients which consisted of 1/3 of a cup of flour and 1/2 a tablespoon of baking powder. I then mixed the eggs and milk together and Victoria mixed the flour and baking powder. Then she got a can of corn kernels.  Victoria gradually added the dry ingredients to the wet ingredients making sure that the batter had a smooth consistency. After we mixed the batter we added the corn kernels. Before we started cooking we added oil to the pan. Mrs Heka came around and turned on our stove so we could then start cooking. While we were cooking we put some salad into our containers and added some dressing. We cooked our batter until it was a golden brown then placed it into our containers. To top it off we added a swirl of sweet chilli sauce.

When we finished cooking we started to wash our dishes and wipe the benches making sure our space was tidy for the next week. I really enjoyed the corn fritters and thought they were very delicious. I would definitely cook this when I have the ingredients. Next week for food tech we are making mac and cheese.
