directions

  • Use a sharp knife to cut down the length of each corn cob, close to the core, to remove the kernels.
  • Cook corn in a saucepan of salted boiling water for 5 minutes or until tender (see microwave tip 1). Drain well.
  • Combine the ricotta and egg in a large bowl and whisk until smooth. Add the flour and stir until combined. Add the pumpkin and corn. Season with salt and pepper and stir to combine.
  • Heat 2 tbs of the oil in a large, heavy-based frying pan over medium heat. Spoon 1/3 cup (80ml) of pumpkin mixture into the pan and flatten slightly. Repeat to make 3 more hash browns. Cook for 3-4 minutes each side or until brown and cooked through. Transfer to a plate lined with paper towel and cover loosely with foil to keep warm. Repeat in 1 more batch.

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY

Melbourne I live on a 5 acre property in the Dandenong Ranges Victoria, Australia, having moved from the burbs when I became pregnant with my now 15 year old daughter Alyssa. Once my daughter was born I became a stay at home mum as I couldn't bear the thought of putting her in daycare. She is the light of my life, I never imagined myself as a mum when younger but now wouldn't have it any other way. Alyssa was made a big sister on the 19th April 2010 when our cheeky little boy Blake was born. I love cooking and experimenting with new recipes so quickly become addicted to Zaar as it was previously known & still use it regularly. In addition to being my kids taxi :lol: I also spend my time, reading, gardening and of course shopping. I'm lucky enough that we have the space & so love growing our own fruits, vegies & herbs, this also means we have plenty of room for animals & at the moment have 2 dogs, Max, a Jackshund who's 6, Fletcher, a Kelpie who's 4, 6 cats Snowpea, Fergus, Ginger, Tango, Annie & Cookie, 4 chooks & 2 Ducks. As well as our pets, we also have a lot of native animals around our area, we have kangaroos, wombats, echidna's, possums as well as rosella's, galah's & Cockatoo's hence the name of where I live..
