No Onion?
1 tbsp onion powder (per medium onion)
3 tbsp dried minced onion
Shallots or leeks (1:1)
No Milk?
Unsweetened almond / soy / oat milk (1:1)
1/2 cup evaporated milk + 1/2 cup water (per 1 cup)
Step-by-Step Instructions
Step 1: Prepare the Vegetables
Start by peeling a medium potato, then grate it and transfer it into a large bowl. Next, peel and grate one carrot and add it to the bowl. Finally, peel and finely chop one onion, and add it to the bowl with the other vegetables.
Step 2: Add Spring Onions
Chop a few spring onions and add them to the bowl with the grated and chopped vegetables.
Step 3: Make the Batter
To the bowl of vegetables, add the chickpea flour, plant-based milk, salt, ground cumin, and black pepper.
Step 4: Mix the Batter
Mix all the ingredients together thoroughly with a wooden spoon until you achieve a thick, well-combined batter. If the mixture is too loose, add more chickpea flour.
Step 5: Fry the Fritters
Add a drizzle of olive oil to a frying pan over medium-low heat. Once the oil is hot, drop spoonfuls of the batter into the pan to form small fritters.
Step 6: Cook the First Side
Cover the pan with a lid and cook the fritters for on medium-low heat.
Step 7: Flip and Finish Cooking
Flip the fritters over with a spatula and cook for another on the other side until they are golden brown and cooked through. Cover the pan again while the second side cooks.
Step 8: Repeat and Serve
Repeat the frying process until you have used all the batter. Serve the fritters warm, garnished with extra chopped spring onions.
Pro Tips
• If the batter is not thick enough, add more chickpea flour until the desired consistency is reached.
