Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 4 medium carrots
- 0.5 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 large egg
- 2 stalks green onions, finely sliced
- 1 clove garlic, minced
- 1 teaspoon ground cumin
- 1 teaspoon ground coriander
- 0.5 teaspoon salt
- 0.25 teaspoon black pepper
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 0.5 cup plain yoghurt
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice
- 1 tablespoon fresh dill, chopped
- 0.25 teaspoon salt (for dressing)
Instructions
Peel the carrots and grate them using a box grater. Place the grated carrots in a clean kitchen towel and squeeze out as much moisture as possible.
In a large mixing bowl, combine the grated carrots, all-purpose flour, egg, green onions, minced garlic, ground cumin, ground coriander, salt, and black pepper. Mix thoroughly until the ingredients are well combined.
Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium heat.
Scoop about 2 tablespoons of the carrot mixture and form it into a small patty. Place it onto the hot skillet. Repeat with the remaining mixture, frying in batches if necessary to avoid overcrowding the pan.
Cook the fritters for 3-4 minutes per side, or until golden brown and crispy. Remove from the skillet and transfer to a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess oil. Add more olive oil to the skillet between batches as needed.
To prepare the yoghurt dressing, mix the plain yoghurt, lemon juice, fresh dill, and salt in a small bowl. Stir until smooth and well combined.
Serve the carrot fritters warm with the yoghurt dressing on the side for dipping or drizzling.
