Equipment

  • Cheese Grater
  • Mixing Bowl
  • Chopping Board
  • Frying Pan

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.
