Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 14 oz Canned artichoke hearts
- 1 cup All-purpose flour
- 1 tbsp Cornstarch
- 1 tsp Baking powder
- 1 tsp Salt
- 0.5 tsp Black pepper
- 0.5 tsp Garlic powder
- 0.5 tsp Smoked paprika
- 2 tbsp Fresh parsley, chopped
- 1 large Egg
- 0.75 cup Milk
- 0.25 cup Parmesan cheese, grated
- 2 cups Vegetable oil (for frying)
Instructions
Drain the canned artichoke hearts and pat them dry with paper towels. Roughly chop them into small pieces and set aside.
In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the flour, cornstarch, baking powder, salt, pepper, garlic powder, and smoked paprika.
In a smaller bowl, beat the egg and stir in the milk. Pour the wet ingredients into the dry ingredients and mix until just combined.
Fold in the chopped artichoke hearts, chopped parsley, and grated Parmesan cheese. The batter should be thick, but not overly stiff.
Heat the vegetable oil in a deep skillet or heavy-bottomed pot to 350°F (175°C). Use a thermometer to ensure the oil is at the correct temperature to avoid greasy fritters.
Using a spoon or small scoop, carefully drop dollops of batter into the hot oil, making sure not to overcrowd the pan.
Fry the fritters for 2-3 minutes on each side, or until they are golden brown and crispy. Use a slotted spoon to remove them from the oil.
Place the cooked fritters on a plate lined with paper towels to drain any excess oil.
Serve the artichoke fritters warm, with your choice of dipping sauce such as aioli, marinara, or a creamy herb dip.
