Corn and Zucchini Fritters

Serves 2 to 4

2 ears corn
2 small zucchini
4 tablespoons all purpose flour
1 egg, lightly beaten
1/2 bunch basil, chiffonade
Salt and freshly ground black pepper, to taste
Butter, for frying

Break corn cobs in half. Over a medium bowl, grate corn kernels down to the cob on the large holes of a grater. Discard cobs. Grate entire zucchinis, also on the large holes of a grater, and add to bowl with corn. Mix in salt, pepper, flour, egg, and basil.

Melt butter in a sauté pan over medium high heat. Spoon corn/zucchini mixture into the hot pan, forming small fritters. Fry until lightly browned, about 2 minutes per side. Serve immediately as a side dish. For a light lunch, serve with tomato concasse and a green salad.
