Method
Heat the oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6 and line a large baking tray with baking parchment.
Heat the oil in a small pan and fry the onion and pepper for 5 mins until softened. Meanwhile, mix the flour, spices and baking powder in a bowl. Add the onions, pepper, corn and 2 of the eggs, then mix together well.
Spoon eight mounds of the mixture onto the baking tray, well spaced apart, then flatten slightly with the back of the spoon. Bake for 20 mins until set and golden.
Meanwhile, mix together the salsa ingredients and poach 2 of the remaining eggs to your liking. Chill the remaining fritters. Reheat your leftover fritters by heating them in a pan or microwave and serve with 2 more poached eggs and the remaining salsa.
