Ingredients
- 200 g Carrots grated
- 4 Spring Onions chopped
- 1 teaspoon Cumin
- 3 tablespoon Coriander finely chopped
- 1 teaspoon Garlic Powder
- ½ teaspoon Salt
- ¼ teaspoon Black Pepper
- 2 Eggs large
- 50 g Plain Flour
- 100 g Feta crumbled
Instructions
- Place the grated carrot, chopped spring onions, cumin, coriander and garlic powder in a bowl.
- Add the eggs, flour and crumbled feta and then season with salt and pepper. Mix with a spoon until you have wet batter.
- Heat the oil in a frying pan on a high heat and dollop heaped tablespoons of the batter into the frying pan (don't crowd the pan - it's best to fry them in batches). I made 6 large fritters with this mixture but you could make slightly smaller ones if you prefer. Cook for 2-3 minutes each side until golden and crispy.
Notes
Top Tips:
Make sure your frying pan is hot when frying the fritters so that you get lovely crispy golden fritters (rather than soggy and soft ones!).
Variations:
- Don't have feta? Use grated cheddar or halloumi instead!
- Like things spicy? Add ½ teaspoon of chilli flakes to the mixture before frying.
- Bulk the fritters out with 3 tablespoons of drained tinned sweetcorn for carrot and sweetcorn fritters.
- Vary the herbs with whatever you have available. Coriander, parsley, basil and dill all work well, or use 1 tablespoon of dried mixed herbs instead.
