    1 Preheat oven to 180ºC. Line a small baking tray with baking paper. Pierce tomatoes and place on the tray. Drizzle with a little olive oil and roast for 8 minutes. Remove and set aside.

    2 Meanwhile in a small bowl, combine sweet chilli sauce and lime juice. Set aside.

    3 In a large bowl, whisk together milk and eggs. Gradually whisk in flour until smooth and well combined. Stir through corn, zucchini, cheese, herbs and lemon zest.

    4 Spray a large frying pan with oil and place over a medium-high heat. Spoon quarter-cupfuls of mixture into pan, 3 fritters at a time. Cook for 3 minutes each side or until golden and cooked through. Spray pan with a little more oil. Repeat with remaining batter to make 12 fritters in total.

    5 Stack fritters and drizzle with chilli and lime sauce. Top with tomatoes, sour cream and avocado. Garnish with extra herbs, if using. Serve with salad.
