Ingredients Required
- 2 cups shredded cabbage
- 3 large eggs
- ¼ cup all-purpose flour (or other gluten-free substitutions)
- 2 green onions, chopped
- ½ tsp salt (to taste)
- ¼ tsp black pepper
- ½ tsp garlic powder (optional)
- ¼ tsp paprika (optional)
- 2 tablespoons oil (for frying).
Cooking Directions
1. Prepare the Cabbage Mixture
In a large bowl, mix the shredded cabbage, green onion, salt, pepper, and flour with any optional spices.
2. Beat in Eggs
In a bowl, break eggs; mix them in well, coating everything evenly. The mixture, when pressed together, feels a little sticky.
3. Heat Oil
In the frying pan, warm up the oil on medium heat.
4. Shape, Fry, and Cook the Fritters
Take about 2 tablespoons of the mixture for each fritter and shape it into a small patty. Place in hot oil, frying for 2-3 minutes on each side until golden-brown and crispy.
5. Drain and Serve
Move fritters to paper towels on a plate to absorb excess oil. Serve them warm along with any favorite dipping sauce-like soy sauce, sweet chili, or just a yogurt dip.
Helpful Hints for Fritter Perfection
🔹 When squeezing water out of cabbage, it is advised not to soggy your fritters.
🔹 Fry the fritters in small batches to not crowding the frying pan; they will fry properly and turn crispy.
🔹 Great additions to try are grated carrot, shredded zucchini, or chili flakes.
