Ingredients

Slice the corn from each cob and place in a large mixing bowl.

Combine the corn, plum sauce, fish sauce, Thai red curry or laksa paste, spring onion, garlic and chicken.

Season to taste.

Beat the egg whites and fold into the mixture. Mould the mixture into rounds to create fritters.

Heat the olive oil in a pan over a high heat. Fry the fritters until golden.

Soak the rice noodles until soft.

Slice the cucumber and toss with the rice noodles.

Top with warm fritters and serve with a squeeze of fresh lime juice and a scattering of sweet basil leaves.
