Ever taste fritters like these? This Lebanese-inspired recipe delicately balances a variety of Mediterranean ingredients and spices in a way very few dishes can emulate. Who knew eggs could be so elevated?
Ingredients
- 8 eggs
- 1 bunch parsley, stalks removed and finely chopped
- 3-4 medium zucchinis, grated
- 2 medium brown onions, grated
- 3-4 cloves garlic, finely diced
- 4-5 tbsp plain flour
- 2 tsp bicarb soda
- 2 tsp Lebanese 7 spice mix
- 1 tsp ground cumin
- 1 tsp ground coriander
- Salt and black pepper, to taste
- Extra virgin olive oil for pan frying
To serve:
- Plain yoghurt
- Fresh herbs (mint, green onions, dill – anything you may have)
Method
- Whisk eggs, spices, flour and bicarb soda together until light, fluffy and well combined. Fold through the rest of the ingredients.
- In a large frypan, heat olive oil over medium-low heat. Add spoonful’s of the mixture to make smaller fritters or cover the surface area of the pan to make larger ones.
- Cook until golden crust is formed on one side, then flip and cook until golden crust is formed on the other side (about 4-5 mins on each side). Repeat process until all the batter is used.
- To serve, arrange on a platter with some plain yoghurt or sour cream and fresh herbs.
