0:11:46 > 0:11:50- I'm preparing brunch in Rhewl - on the outskirts of Ruthin.
0:11:51 > 0:11:55- The smoothies and spicy eggs - went down well.
0:11:56 > 0:12:01- I first tasted the main course - with my family who live in America.
0:12:01 > 0:12:04- It's sweetcorn fritters with bacon.
0:12:05 > 0:12:07- Fritters are like small pancakes.
0:12:07 > 0:12:12- I'll be adding sweetcorn - for sweetness.
0:12:12 > 0:12:17- It works perfectly with - the salty bacon and feta cheese.
0:12:18 > 0:12:20- They're fresh and easy to make.
0:12:21 > 0:12:22- To start...
0:12:23 > 0:12:27- ..I'll add three quarters - of the sweetcorn.
0:12:29 > 0:12:32- I'm also using black beans.
0:12:32 > 0:12:37- I find the fritters - too sweet when I only use sweetcorn.
0:12:37 > 0:12:40- You'll need self-raising flour...
0:12:41 > 0:12:45- ..black pepper, salt and - an egg to bind the ingredients.
0:12:45 > 0:12:47- Blitz the mixture.
0:12:49 > 0:12:52- Add the rest of the sweetcorn, - black beans...
0:12:52 > 0:12:57- ..finely chopped spring onions, - a bunch of coriander...
0:12:57 > 0:12:59- ..and a red chilli for a kick.
0:13:02 > 0:13:06- Fry the mixture in coconut oil - for a minute each side until brown.
0:13:08 > 0:13:13- I serve them with local bacon, - a wedge of lime, feta cheese...
0:13:13 > 0:13:15- ..and a coriander leaf.
0:13:32 > 0:13:37- Breakfast can be a greasy meal. - This was nice and light.
0:13:38 > 0:13:42- I'd never consider eating sweetcorn - for brunch. It's delicious.
0:13:43 > 0:13:45- Very nice.
0:13:45 > 0:13:47- Delicious.
0:13:47 > 0:13:51- I wouldn't normally - put the ingredients together.
0:13:56 > 0:13:59- Wow. The fritters were delicious.
0:13:59 > 0:14:02- I'm not sure what was in them.
0:14:02 > 0:14:06- But if it's nice, I'll eat it. - There was sweetcorn in it.
0:14:07 > 0:14:11- The combination of bacon and cheese - was really nice.
0:14:13 > 0:14:15- And now it's competition time.
0:14:16 > 0:14:21- This time, the brief - was a fruity pudding for brunch.
0:14:22 > 0:14:27- I don't know who did what, - but here is a brief taster.
0:14:27 > 0:14:31- I made a roasted banana loaf...
0:14:33 > 0:14:37- ..with vanilla ricotta - and raspberry compote.
0:14:39 > 0:14:41- I thought it was different.
0:14:42 > 0:14:46- My husband tried it and liked it.
