It's no exaggeration to say this Tahini Sauce is the all-time Village Wholefoods team favourite.
Mild, balanced and creamy enough to be a crowd pleaser, the garlic and greek yoghurt add a sharpness that cuts through any richness. I call this tahini sauce the Little Black Dress of sauces, because it goes with so many dishes. The list of dishes you can add this sauce to is endless. Try adding it to your next smashed avo toast breakfast. Spoon it over baked vegetables or roast lamb. Serve with crudities and breadsticks as a dip. Add it to sandwiches and wraps, or spoon a dollop on a stack of corn fritters. It goes wonderfully with falafel and shawarma. You can give the sauce a more pourable consistency by thinning it with a little more chilled water - this makes it perfect as a salad dressing.
When I see corn fritters on a cafe menu, odds are that's what I'm ordering. They're often presented in a golden stack with salad greens and a dipping sauce, and crowned with a perfectly poached egg.
As for making them at home, the good news is that they require few ingredients and are hard to get wrong. As delicious as they are eaten simply with an egg or a smear of avocado, it's easy to elevate them to special meal status by adding extra ingredients and sides. One ingredient I include in my corn fritter recipe that you might not find at your local Cafe is amaranth grain. It gives the fritters a gorgeous texture - crunchy and golden on the outside while still being light and fluffy. Amaranth also gives the fritters extra nutrition and heartiness. Try making these corn fritters the next time you're enjoying a go-slow weekend morning. They're truly delicious! |
