Vegetable Fritters
Ingredients (for 4 persons)
- 150 g of chickpea flour
- Salt
- About 350 ml of lukewarm water
- 2 tablespoons of extra virgin olive oil
- 100 g of pea flakes
- 1 chopped onion
- 1 zucchini
- 1 bell pepper
- Herbs
Preparation
- Rehydrate the pea flakes in lukewarm for 5-10 minutes. Once ready, squeeze them well to remove all the excess water.
- In a bowl, place 150g of chickpea flour and salt to taste.
- Gradually pour in about 350ml of lukewarm water and 2 tablespoons of extra virgin olive oil, and begin to mix until a thick, smooth, and homogeneous batter forms.
- Incorporate 100 g of rehydrated pea flakes, 1 chopped onion, 1 zucchini, and 1 bell pepper cut into thin strips, along with the herbs.
- Mix well (if the batter is too runny, add more flour; if too thick, add more water).
- At this point, you can cook the fritters by frying them in hot oil for 3-4 minutes. You can also bake them in a preheated oven at 180°C (350°F) for about 15 minutes or until golden brown.
