CARROT AND CORIANDER FRITTERS
Ingredients
- a good handful carrots
- about 6
- trimmed and washed
- 3-4 spring onions
- both green and white parts
- sliced
- a good handful fresh coriander
- roughly chopped
- plus extra to serve
- 2 large free-range eggs
- beaten
- 1 tbsp or so plain flour
- 1 handful freshly grated parmesan cheese (or alternative vegetarian cheese)
- a few glugs double cream
- salt and freshly ground black pepper
- a few good glugs fruity olive oil
Directions
- Grate the carrots in a food processor
- then place into a large bowl with the spring onions and as much coriander as you like.
- Add in the eggs and the flour to bind everything together
- followed by the parmesan cheese (it will melt and again will help to hold the fritter together) and
- for a touch of luxury
- some cream and stir well
- seasoning to taste with salt and freshly ground black pepper.
- Just before you fry it's worth just squeezing some of the mixture together in your hands to ensure it won't fall apart when cooking. If you think it will
- just add either a little more beaten egg or flour
- only just enough to stick them together.
- Heat a large frying pan
- add in the oil and form the mixture into thin fritters
- so they will cook quickly. Fry for 4-6 minutes until golden-brown on both sides. Remember the golden rule of frying - don't play with the food too much
- let the fritters form a crust before you turn them over. Serve straightaway scattered with more coriander.
