Finely dice the pancetta and thinly slice the shallots.
Add the plain and self raising flours and grated cheese.
Sprinkle with salt and pepper.
Add the zucchini, shallots, corn and pancetta. Mix to combine.
Your mixture should be thick. If necessary add another tablespoon of self raising flour.
Place 2 tbsp of oil into a large nonstick fry pan. Allow the pan to reach a medium temperature.
Dollop 2 tbsp of the mixture per fritter into the pan. You should make 12 fritters in total.
Cook for 4 minutes either side. You should notice the mixture begins to bubble around the edges. Fritters should be golden both sides.
