Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 medium Zucchini
- 2 medium Carrot
- 1 medium Red bell pepper
- 4 stalks Scallions
- 1 cup Chickpea flour
- 1 large Egg
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Cumin
- 0.25 cup Fresh parsley
- 0.25 cup Olive oil
Instructions
Grate the zucchinis and carrots using a box grater and transfer them to a clean kitchen towel. Squeeze out as much moisture as possible.
Finely dice the red bell pepper and chop the scallions. Chop the fresh parsley as well.
In a large bowl, combine the grated zucchini, grated carrots, diced red bell pepper, chopped scallions, and chopped parsley.
Add the chickpea flour, egg, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and cumin to the vegetable mixture. Mix everything until well combined into a thick batter.
Heat the olive oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium heat.
Scoop heaping tablespoons of the vegetable mixture into the skillet and flatten them gently with the back of the spoon to form fritters.
Cook the fritters for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until they are golden brown and crispy.
Transfer the cooked fritters to a paper towel-lined plate to drain any excess oil.
Serve the fritters warm with your choice of dipping sauce or yogurt.
