Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 1 medium Zucchini
- 1 large Carrot
- 1 medium Red bell pepper
- 3 stalks Green onions
- 1 cup Chickpea flour (besan)
- 2 large Eggs
- 1 teaspoon Salt
- 0.5 teaspoon Ground black pepper
- 0.5 teaspoon Garlic powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Cumin powder
- 0.5 teaspoon Paprika
- 1 teaspoon Baking powder
- 0.25 cup Olive oil
- 0.25 cup Fresh cilantro
Instructions
Grate the zucchini and carrot using a box grater and place them into a large mixing bowl.
Chop the red bell pepper and green onions finely and add them to the bowl.
Into the bowl, add chickpea flour, beaten eggs, salt, ground black pepper, garlic powder, cumin powder, paprika, and baking powder.
Mix all the ingredients together until fully combined and the mixture is thick and holds together when pressed.
Heat olive oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium heat.
Using a tablespoon, scoop the vegetable mixture and carefully drop it into the skillet, flattening slightly with the back of the spoon to form fritters.
Cook the fritters for about 3-4 minutes each side, or until golden brown and crispy.
Transfer the cooked fritters to a paper towel-lined plate to remove excess oil.
Repeat with the remaining vegetable mixture, adding more oil to the skillet as needed.
Chop the fresh cilantro and sprinkle over the fritters before serving.
Serve hot as an appetizer or snack. Enjoy your gluten-free crispy vegetable fritters!
