Time 35m

Yield 18 Fritters

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 large about 340g carrots, peeled, coarsely grated
2 teaspoons finely grated fresh ginger
2 tablespoons besan (chickpea flour)
1 egg white
2 tablespoons coarsely chopped coriander
1 teaspoon black mustard seeds
1 teaspoon cumin seed
vegetable oil or ghee, to shallow-fry

Steps:

  • Combine the carrot, ginger, besan, eggwhite and coriander in a medium bowl. Place the mustard seeds and cumin seeds in a small frying pan over high heat and cook, stirring, for 1 minute or until aromatic and the seeds begin to pop. Remove the frying pan from the heat and add the seeds to the carrot mixture. Stir to combine.
  • Heat oil or ghee in a large non-stick frying pan over medium heat. Spoon 3 tablespoonfuls of the carrot mixture into the frying pan. Use the back of a spatula to firmly press the mixture down. Cook for 1-2 minutes each side or until golden brown and heated through. Transfer fritters to a plate lined with paper towel. Repeat in 5 more batches with remaining carrot mixture, reheating pan between batches (you will have about 18 fritters).
  • Place fritters on a platter and serve with the coconut sambal, cucumber pickle and bought mango chutney.
