- ½ red chilli finely chopped
- 1 thumb size piece of ginger (peeled and finely chopped)

For the Sriracha mayo (mix together)
- 70g mayo

Method:
- In a bowl, place all the sweetcorn cake ingredients apart from the eggs and flour, and mix together. Add the eggs and mix in, then add the sieved flour, if the mix is too wet then add a little more flour.
