Equipment

  • Food processor optional

Ingredients

  • 2 medium zucchinis shredded and liquid squeezed out
  • 2 medium carrots shredded and liquid squeezed out
  • ½ beetroot shredded and liquid squeezed out
  • 2 spring onions sliced
  • 1 clove garlic minced
  • ¾ cup plain/all-purpose flour
  • 3 eggs lightly beaten
  • Salt & pepper
  • Vegetable or olive oil to fry.
  • Tahini Yoghurt Sauce  to serve

Instructions

  • Line an oven-proof plate with kitchen paper. Preheat oven to 140°C.
    Combine shredded vegetables, spring onion and garlic in a large mixing bowl. Sprinkle flour in a little at a time, tossing the shredded vegetables with a fork as you go to ensure everything is evenly coated in flour. Add egg, season and mix quickly.
  • Heat the oil in a frying pan over a medium-high heat. Test for readiness by carefully dropping in a small spoonful of fritter batter. If it sizzles immediately, it's ready.
  • Add batter to the pan in batches. Each fritter should be roughly the size of your palm. Press down gently and allow to cook for about 4 minutes. Lift the corner of the fritters to see if they have browned before turning and repeating the process on the other side.
  • As your fritters cook, place them on the paper-lined plate and keep them warm in the oven until all the batter is used. Serve with Tahini Yoghurt Sauce
