Pumpkin Fritters (Print Version)
# Ingredients:
01 -
2 handfuls shredded butternut squash (or your favorite type).
02 -
1/2 of a small onion, diced.
03 -
1 big egg.
04 -
4 tablespoons of plain flour.
05 -
A quarter cup of grated fresh parmesan.
06 -
A pinch of salt, adjust to your liking.
07 -
A dash or two of red chili flakes or ground black pepper.
08 -
1/2 to 1 teaspoon dried parsley, or a bit more if using fresh.
09 -
1-2 tablespoons of olive oil for frying.
# Instructions:
01 -
Shred your squash and blot it dry to remove extra moisture. Toss it into a medium-sized bowl along with the diced onion, egg, parmesan, flour, salt, a little pepper, and your parsley. Stir until combined. Either scoop out spoonfuls and flatten or shape into patties by hand. (You should get about six).
02 -
Heat up some olive oil in a medium skillet. Pop your fritters in—three at a time works well—and cook till both sides are golden. Take them out and place them on a plate with some paper towels. Dig in right away!
# Notes:
01 -
Serve them warm or let them cool—your call!
02 -
Perfect as a quick snack or a tasty side dish.
