Golden Cabbage & Onion Fritters

Golden Cabbage & Onion Fritters

This recipe transforms simple vegetables into a hearty, savory dish that is crispy on the outside and tender on the inside.

Ingredients

• 1 small cabbage (finely shredded)

• 1 onion (finely diced)

• 1 carrot (grated)

• 2 eggs (beaten)

• 4 tablespoons flour (all-purpose)

• Spices: Salt, Black Pepper, Paprika, and Dried Garlic (to taste)

• Olive oil (for frying)

Preparation Steps

1. Prep the Vegetables: Shred the cabbage thinly and grate the carrot. Dice the onion into small pieces.

   • Tip: If the cabbage is very firm, sprinkle it with a pinch of salt and massage it for a minute to soften the fibers.

2. Sauté (Optional but Recommended): Heat a drizzle of olive oil in a pan. Sauté the onion and carrot for 3–4 minutes until soft. Add the cabbage and cook for another 5 minutes until it wilts slightly. Let the mixture cool for a few minutes.

3. Create the Batter: In a large bowl, whisk the 2 eggs. Stir in the 4 tablespoons of flour and all your spices (salt, pepper, paprika, and garlic) until you have a smooth paste.

4. Combine: Fold your vegetable mixture into the egg and flour batter until everything is evenly coated.

5. Fry: Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Scoop large spoonfuls of the mixture into the pan and flatten them slightly with a spatula.

6. Cook to Perfection: Fry for about 3–4 minutes per side until they are a deep golden brown and crispy.
