Curried Sweet Potato + Carrot Fritters
The flavor is also a bit more complex with the addition of curry powder. I actually love how curry powder is just one spice but can bring so much to a dish. These fritters are given a distinctly ethnic flare with just one ingredient!
Servings: 10 fritters
Calories: 70kcal
Ingredients
- 1½ cups shredded sweet potato
- 1 cup shredded/grated carrot
- ⅓ cup quinoa flour
- 1 large egg lightly beaten (or 2 flax eggs)
- 2 teaspoons curry powder
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Coconut oil for cooking
- Topping: yogurt ginger + parsley and/or sliced green onions
Instructions
- In a large bowl, combine the sweet potato, carrots, flour, egg(s), curry powder, salt and pepper. Stir the mixture together with a spatula or wooden spoon until combined.
- Add 2 - 3 tablespoons of coconut oil into a large skillet over medium-high heat. Once the oil is hot, form small patties out of the sweet potato mixture in your hands.
- Cook the fritters until golden brown, about 2 - 3 minutes, then flip cook an additional 2 minutes. Transfer the fritters to a cooling rack. Repeat this process with the remaining mixture.
- Serve slightly warm as is (or with a quick mixture of non-dairy yogurt, ginger and parsley or simply sliced green onions).
