Spiced Carrot Fritters are mini, fried, carrot patty-like, cakes. Overflowing with flavor and beyond simple to make, this recipe is sure to become a weekly special in many homes. Throw your carrots in a quick pulsating blender, mix them up with eggs, scallions, chili, cilantro and panko bread crumbs for an extremely simple vegetarian patty.
I have included a delicious feta and lime garnish to top your fritters with, which you can also serve with a green salad, if you wish.
To make Spiced Carrot Fritters, you will need the following ingredients:
In a large bowl, season eggs with ½ teaspoon salt and pepper each and whisk together, lightly.
In a food processor, using the large attachment, coarsely grate the carrots.
Add the grated carrots to the whisked eggs and coat. Fold in panko crumbs, 2 scallions, chili and cilantro.
In a small bowl gently mix the lime juice, 1 tablespoon oil and 1 remaining scallion. Set aside.
In a large, cast-iron skillet over medium heat, heat 1 tablespoon oil. Add 6 spoonful drops of the carrot mixture onto the skillet and cook for about 3 minutes per side until golden brown and crispy. Remove from the heat to a wire rack. Repeat with remaining mixture, adding more cooking oil as necessary.
Gently stir the feta into the lime juice dressing.
Serve the fritters with the feta garnish on top and a side salad, if you wish.
