Sift flour, baking powder and salt into a bowl. Make a well, break in egg and beat with a wooden spoon until smooth, gradually adding milk. Stir cheese into batter with ketchup and sweetcorn. Leave to stand for 20 minutes. Lightly brush a non-stick frying pan with butter. When pan is hot, spoon in 1 tablespoon of the mixture, flattening it with the back of the spoon. Cook for 2-3 minutes on each side until crisp and golden. Repeat with remaining mixture. Serve immediately with grilled bacon.
