These delicious crispy fritters are packed with protein with 15g per serving.
These make for a great option for Meatless Monday or to share with your vegetarian or vegan friends.
Ingredients: (serves 4)
300g firm tofu
2 large eggs, beaten
¼ cup of chickpea flour (can be subbed for plain flour)
2 tbsp milk
½ cup shredded greens – Spinach, Bok choy, Napa cabbage etc
1 clove garlic, crushed
4 spring onions, thinly sliced
1 tbsp soy sauce
Sesame oil for cooking
Handful of coriander
How to make:
Remove excess water from your tofu by placing between 2-pieces of paper towel to soak up moisture, then grate it onto a chopping board. Pat again to remove any excess water.
In a bowl, combine chickpea flour, eggs, milk, grated tofu, spring onions, crushed garlic, soy sauce and shredded greens. Mix well.
Heat oil in a large non-stick frying pan over a low to medium heat
Take around three heaped tablespoons of the mixture and form into small flat fritter about 10cm in diameter as you would with a corn fritter or similar
Depending on the size of your pan you will be able to cook around 2-4 cook fritters at a time. Cook them for around 3 minutes each side or until golden and cooked through. Add a little more oil and continue until in small batches until complete.
Serving tip:
Serve with Asian Greens and sweet chilli sauce.
I used my amazing Eco Smartshape pans from GreenPan to cook this dish, these pans are designed to nest efficiently in your cupboard, giving you extra storage space!
These pans feature a PFAS free coating which is better for your health, and also arrive with a separate handle to attach yourself, making it easier to recycle later, which also makes them better for the environment too. This unique design, means that the packaging is 60% smaller!
