This dish is a quick and easy meal served ideally with a salad.  You can cook with any type of oil, our preference is extra virgin olive oil. After cooking place fritters on absorbent paper to absorb oil.

Ingredients

  • 1 large carrot – peeled, rinsed, grated
  • 2 shallots – peeled, rinsed, sliced finely
  • 3 tablespoons parsley – washed, sliced finely
  • 1/2 cup spelt flour
  • 3/4 cup brown rice flour
  • 1 tablespoon baking powder
  • 3 tablespoons oats
  • Oil for cooking
  • 1 lemon – cut into wedges

Directions

  1. Prepare vegetables and lemon.
  2. In a medium size mixing bowl add all ingredients, except the oil and lemon, adding water last.  Mix well to form a batter.
  3. Add a generous amount of oil to a medium sized frying pan to cover and heat on medium.
  4. Spoon 1 heap tablespoon of the batter into the oil, 4-6 at a time depending on pan size. Cook 1-2 minutes each side or until golden brown.
