Gently warm half teaspoon of rapeseed oil in a frying pan and lightly sauté the courgette, red onion, garlic, ground coriander and chilli until fragrant and starting to soften.
Place the corn (drained), coconut, zest of lime, ground almonds, chopped coriander and spring onions in a bowl.
Add the sauteed mixture to the bowl, stir well and add the salt.
Sprinkle the gram flour (or flour of your choice) over the mixture and gently mix in.
Refrigerate for at least an hour. This mixture is sticky and needs to chill before you can mold into fritters. It also allows all the flavours to just hang out in the bowl and mingle and develop.
Heat 2 tbsp vegetable oil in a frying pan until a small drop of the batter starts to sizzle.
Dusting your hands with a little more flour, gently mold the mixture into patties, dropping them into oil as you make them.
Fry for about 3 minutes on each side, or until golden brown. You may find it easier to drop spoonfuls of the mixture straight into the frying pan if you find your mixture is too sticky to work with.
Serve with a salad, some lime wedges and some Sriracha or sweet chilli dipping sauce.
Please note that where the recipe asks for milk, butter or yogurt, this refers to any plant-based version that you prefer.
