Zucchini and Carrot Fritters With Yogurt-Mint Dip image

These crispy fritters, which Melissa Clark developed for her picky daughter, are also an ideal cocktail accompaniment. Hot, salty and crunchy: They can be devoured in one or two bites. To make them, combine shredded or diced carrots and zucchini, lemon zest and scallion with a light batter of flour, egg, milk, coriander and pepper. Let them rest for a half-hour so the vegetables can soften, then drop the battered vegetables by the spoonful into the oil and fry until golden all over. Sprinkle with salt and serve with a creamy dip of yogurt, mint and garlic, and watch them disappear.

Carrot & halloumi fritters with coriander dip image

Serve these golden and crispy carrot & halloumi fritters as part of a meze spread or buffet at Christmas. Enjoy with our moreish coriander dip

Provided by Anna Glover

Categories     Canapes

Time 50m

Number Of Ingredients 15

1 egg, beaten
60g plain flour
1 onion, coarsely grated
4 carrots, coarsely grated
250g halloumi, coarsely grated
thumb-sized piece of ginger, peeled and finely grated
1 red chilli, finely chopped
2 tsp ground coriander
small bunch of coriander, finely chopped
vegetable oil, for frying
200g Greek yogurt
4 tbsp butter or ghee
½ tsp smoked paprika
pinch of chilli flakes
½ tbsp coriander seeds, crushed

Steps:

  • Whisk the egg and flour together in a large bowl until thick and lump-free, then fold in the onion, carrots, halloumi, ginger, chilli, ground coriander, half the fresh coriander and plenty of seasoning. The mixture should be quite stiff - if the batter isn't coating the veg, add another tablespoon of flour or a small splash of milk.
  • Fill a medium heavy-based saucepan no more than a third full of vegetable oil and heat to 180C, or until a cube of bread sizzles when dropped into the oil, and browns in about 30 seconds.
  • Form the fritter mixture into bite-sized balls using your hands or two small spoons. Fry the fritters in batches of five or six, turning in the oil every few minutes for a total of 5-6 mins, or until crisp and golden brown. Drain on kitchen paper and serve hot, or leave to cool and reheat before serving. Will keep in an airtight container in the fridge for up to three days, or in the freezer for three months. To reheat, heat the oven to 220C/200C fan/gas 7, transfer to a baking tray, and bake for 5-10 mins until crisp and heated through.
  • To make the dip, combine the yogurt, most of the remaining fresh coriander, and some seasoning. Melt the butter or ghee in a small frying pan, then stir in the paprika, chilli flakes and coriander seeds. Sizzle for 1 min, then pour over the yogurt. Top with the rest of the coriander, and serve with the fritters for dunking.

Provided by Greg Lofts

Categories     Appetizers

Time 45m

Yield Makes about 20

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 medium zucchini (10 ounces), coarsely grated or finely julienned (2 3/4 cups)
Kosher salt (we use Diamond Crystal) and freshly ground pepper
1 teaspoon vegetable oil, such as safflower, plus more for frying
1 large leek, white and light-green parts only, halved lengthwise, thinly sliced crosswise, and thoroughly washed and drained (1 1/4 cups)
2 medium carrots (6 ounces), peeled and coarsely grated or finely julienned (1/2 cup)
1/2 cup potato starch
1 large egg, beaten
Flaky sea salt, such as Jacobsen
Zesty Tomato and Curried-Sour-Cream Dipping Sauces, for serving

Steps:

  • In a colander, toss zucchini with 1/2 teaspoon kosher salt. Let drain 10 minutes, then squeeze dry. Transfer to a large bowl. Heat oil over medium in a medium heavy-bottomed skillet, such as cast iron. Add leek and cook, stirring occasionally, until tender but no color has developed, about 5 minutes. Transfer to bowl with zucchini and let cool completely. Stir in carrots, potato starch,1 teaspoon kosher salt, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper to combine, then fold in egg.
  • Pour a scant 1/2 inch oil into skillet. Heat over medium until oil shimmers and bubbles form instantly around a breadcrumb dropped in (350°F on a deep-fry thermometer). Working in batches, form mixture into golf-ball-size rounds; carefully drop into oil and flatten slightly.
  • Fry, flipping once and adjusting heat as needed to maintain a level temperature, until crisp and golden brown, about 5 minutes. Drain on a wire rack set over a rimmed baking sheet, then sprinkle with flaky salt; keep warm in a preheated 200°F oven while frying the rest. Serve warm, with dipping sauces.

Number Of Ingredients 15

3 Thai chiles, thinly sliced
1 garlic clove, finely chopped
2 tablespoons chopped red onion
1/4 cup sugarcane vinegar or distilled white vinegar
Kosher salt
1 medium sweet potato, peeled
4 medium carrots, peeled
Kosher salt
8 cups (or more) vegetable oil
3/4 cup (or more) club soda
1 teaspoon fish sauce
1 1/4 cups cornstarch
4 ounces small or medium shrimp, peeled, deveined
1 cup cilantro leaves with tender stems
A deep-fry thermometer

Steps:

  • Mix chiles, garlic, onion, and vinegar in a small bowl; season with salt.
  • Thinly slice sweet potatoes and carrots into 3x1/4" planks (use a mandoline if you have one), then slice lengthwise into matchsticks. Place in a medium bowl and toss with a few pinches of salt. Let sit until slightly softened, about 30 minutes. Rinse off salt and pat dry.
  • Pour oil into a large heavy pot to a depth of at least 2" but with at least a 4" headspace, as oil will bubble aggressively when you add fritters. Fit pot with thermometer; heat oil over medium-high until thermometer registers 330°F-340°F.
  • Meanwhile, combine club soda and fish sauce in a large measuring glass. Add cornstarch and whisk until smooth. Place half of sweet potato and carrot mixture, shrimp, and cilantro in a medium bowl and toss to combine. Pour in half of cornstarch slurry and toss to coat (slurry should cling to shrimp and vegetables in a light, even layer).
  • Using a slotted spoon, carefully lower half of slurry-coated vegetable and shrimp mixture into oil. Once bubbling subsides, mixture will disperse across the surface of oil. Using a spider or a clean slotted spoon, corral vegetables and shrimp by gathering them against the side of the pot until they form a large mound that clings together and can be turned as a single unit. Fry, turning occasionally and increasing heat as needed to keep oil temperature between 330°F and 340°F, until fritter is golden brown and crisp around edges, about 4 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack set inside a rimmed baking sheet. Repeat process with remaining slurry-coated vegetable and shrimp mixture, adding a splash or so of club soda if needed to loosen batter (it should look like a glossy coating), to make another fritter.
  • Repeat entire process with remaining sweet potato and carrot mixture, cilantro, shrimp, and cornstarch slurry to make 2 more fritters.
  • Season fritters lightly with salt. Serve with chile vinegar alongside for dipping.
  • Chile vinegar can be made 3 days ahead. Cover and chill. Vegetables can be salted, drained, and patted dry 1 day ahead. Cover and chill.

Time 40m

Yield 4 servings (16 fritters, 4 cups rice, 1 heaping cup raita and 1/2 cup pickled onions)

Number Of Ingredients 26

2 tablespoons vegetable oil
1/2 cup finely diced red onion (about 1/2 medium onion)
1 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1 tablespoon tomato paste
1 clove garlic, minced
2 cups long-grain rice (such as basmati rice), rinsed and drained
1 cup frozen vegetable medley (corn, peas, green beans and carrots)
1/2 red onion, very thinly sliced
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
1/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice (or the juice of 1 lemon minus 1 teaspoon reserved for the raita)
1 cup plain yogurt
1/4 cup finely grated peeled carrot (about 1/2 medium carrot)
1 1/2 teaspoons honey
Zest of 1 lemon
1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice
1/2 teaspoon ground coriander
1/2 teaspoon kosher salt
12 ounces white cauliflower florets (from about 1/2 head cauliflower)
1/2 teaspoon ground coriander
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1/4 cup finely grated peeled carrot (about 1/2 medium carrot)
3 tablespoons all-purpose flour
2 large eggs, whisked
3/4 cup vegetable oil

Steps:

  • For the veggie rice: Heat the oil in a small pot over medium-low heat until hot. Add the red onion, salt and pepper; cook, stirring often, until the onion just softens, about 3 minutes. Stir in the tomato paste and garlic and cook, stirring, until the tomato paste caramelizes and turns a deeper red color, about 3 minutes. Next, stir in the rinsed rice. Cook the rice, stirring, until the rice is no longer wet and is fully coated with the tomato paste, about 1 minute. (This step is important to ensure the rice turns an orange color in the end.) Add the vegetable medley and stir to combine. Add 2 cups water and raise the heat to medium high. Bring to a boil then reduce the heat to a simmer. Cover with a tight-fitting lid and simmer for 20 minutes. Remove the lid and serve immediately.
  • Meanwhile, make the pickled red onions: Toss the onions with the salt and pepper in a small bowl. Stir in the lemon juice and let sit at least 10 minutes. Season with more salt, if necessary. The onions can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days.
  • For the raita: Stir together all the ingredients in a medium bowl. Refrigerate in an airtight container until ready to serve, for up to 3 days.
  • For the cauliflower fritters: Microwave the cauliflower on high in a microwave-safe bowl until tender enough to mash, about 6 minutes.
  • Season the cauliflower with the coriander, 1 teaspoon salt and a few grinds pepper. Mash with the back of a fork until the cauliflower breaks down into pea-size pieces. Add the carrot and sprinkle with the flour; stir until evenly combined. Add the egg and mix together until just combined.
  • Heat the oil in a 10-inch cast-iron skillet or high-sided sauté pan until you just start to see ripples in the oil. Line a baking sheet with paper towels.
  • Add heaping tablespoonfuls of the fritter batter into the hot oil, working in batches to avoid overcrowding the skillet; you should have about 16 fritters total. Cook until golden brown and crispy, about 3 minutes per side. Remove to the prepared baking sheet and season with salt.
  • Serve four fritters per plate with the rice, raita and pickled red onions.
