Fritters are just fun and can be made so many different ways. Since it's Tuesday, Mexican it is. I used carrots and jalepeno peppers then seasoned them with cumin and chili powder. I served them over quinoa and black beans and a side of confetti slaw. All 3 recipes included.
FRITTERS
1 cup + 2 Tbsp garbanzo bean flour
1 tsp cumin
1 tsp chili powder(or chipotle powder)
1 tsp salt
2 cups grated carrots
1 jalapeno pepper, deeded & minced
1. Squeeze liquid from grated carrots and pat dry. In a large bowl whisk together garbanzo bean flour, cumin, chili powder and salt with 1 cup cold water. Mix in carrots and jalapenos. Set aside for 15 minutes before cooking.
2. In a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat with 2 Tbsp vegetable oil. Once the oil is hot, divide batter into 8 portions. Working in batches, drop each portion into the skillet. Flatten batter out with the bottom of a spoon and cook until browned and crisp on the bottom, approximately 3 to 4 minutes per side. Remove from skillet onto paper towels and sprinkle with salt.
