If you’re after a quick, cheap and tasty dinner, then these fritters are for you. Made with rice flour, they are suitable for those who are gluten free. The combination of sweet carrot, salty feta and crunchy chickpeas make these fritters a unique and delicious flavour combination. They also make good vege burger patties.
Recipe from Donna Hay’s new book “Simple Dinners”
Ingredients:
2 carrots, peeled and grated
400g can chickpeas, drained
100g feta cheese
2 eggs, beaten
1/4 cup rice flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
1/2 cup chopped coriander
Salt and pepper to taste.
Makes around 12 fritters
Put chickpeas in a bowl and mash roughly with a fork. Add grated carrots. Crumble over the feta cheese. Add the beaten eggs, rice flour, baking powder and chopped corriander. Mix well. Heat a tablespoon of olive oil in a fry pan. Shape mixture into fritters and fry until brown on both sides and cooked through.
Serve with chopped tomato, red onion and a dollop of low fat sour cream. These fritters would also make a tasty burger filling with crispy ice burg lettuce, red onion, avocado and tomato.
