These Pea, Corn & Carrot Fritters are the ultimate adaptable recipe – perfect for turning whatever vegetables you have on hand into something golden, crispy, and delicious. Sweet corn, crunchy carrots, and tender peas are just the start – swap in other veggies from the fridge or garden to make them your own. Summer or Winter these fritters shine. Great for lunch, snacks, or even an easy dinner the whole family will love. Recipe adapted from Eight Forest Lane (https://eightforestlane.com). Sprinkle a little Avohaven Herbalicious salt on them while fresh out of the pan.
Ingredients:
1 cup frozen corn
1 cup frozen peas
1 medium sized carrot grated
¾ cup plain flour
1 ½ teaspoon baking powder
½ teaspoon paprika
½ teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon dried herbs such as parsley and oregano
¼ teaspoon garlic powder
1 egg
½ cup milk
1-2 tablespoons avocado oil
Instructions:
Bring a small saucepan of water to the boil and add the frozen corn and peas and cook for 1-2 minutes. Alternatively, cover the frozen peas and corn with water in a microwave safe bowl with a lid and microwave for 3 minutes. Once cooked, drain and set aside.
In a large bowl whisk together the flour, baking powder, herbs and spices. Add in the egg and milk and whisk to combine until a thick batter forms. Add in the grated carrot and cooked peas and corn and mix through.
Heat a large frying pan on the stove with approximately a tablespoon of oil. Once the oil is hot add ¼ cup of batter to the pan per fritter. Depending on the size of your pan you may need to do this in batches. I usually cook 3 at a time. Once the bottom is golden (about 3 minutes) flip and cook the other side for about 2 minutes until golden brown. Remove from the pan and set aside on a plate with a paper towel to absorb any excess oil to prevent the fritters from becoming soggy. Repeat until all batter has been used
Serve hot with your favourite sauce on the side or drizzle with one of our vinaigrettes or our crispy Asian Inspired Chilli Avocado oil.
