Spicy Fritters

Vegan Spicy Fritters

Frittttttters!

This new and improved recipe for our spicy fritters is so fun to make.

They’re also a great way of introducing lots of fresh veggies to your diet.

The broccoli is packed with Vitamin C and these fritters will only take a few simple steps, so they’re super simple and really easy to make at home.

We like to serve our fritters with a drizzle of lime juice and sweet chilli sauce.

Don’t forget, if you love simple and tasty vegan food, then you’ll totally love our debut 5-ingredient cookbook So Vegan in 5, which is available to buy right now.

Enjoy!

Vegan Spicy Fritters

Spicy Fritters

Serves: 8 fritters Prep Time: 15 minutes Cooking Time: 30 minutes 30 minutes
Nutrition facts: 200 calories 20 grams fat

Ingredients

  • Vegan Spicy Fritters 1 broccoli (approx. 350g / 12.3oz)
  • 1/2 red pepper
  • 3 spring onions
  • 1 red chilli
  • 4 garlic cloves
  • handful of fresh coriander
  • 125g / 4.4oz chickpea flour
  • 80g / 2.7oz tinned sweetcorn
  • 2 tsp paprika
  • 1/4 tsp chilli powder
  • salt & pepper

To serve (optional)

  • vegan yoghurt
  • small handful of fresh mint leaves
  • sweet chilli sauce

Method

  1. Pick the florets off the broccoli, finely chop the florets into small pieces. Note: don't bin the stem of the broccoli. You can use it to make a soup!
  2. Deseed the red pepper and red chilli, and finely chop both into small pieces. Then finely chop the spring onion and coriander. Finally peel and dice the garlic.
  3. Add all the chopped veg to a mixing bowl along with the remaining ingredients and 4-5 tablespoons of water. Stir until fully combined. Try adding more water if the fritters aren't holding together.
  4. Heat a little oil in a frying pan on a low-medium heat. While the oil heats up, divide the mixture into 8 and shape each eight into a round fritter. Add 2-3 fritters to the frying pan at a time, cover the pan with a lid and fry for 5-8 minutes on each side or until golden brown. It's important to cook the fritters for long enough so the chickpea flour cooks in the middle. Repeat until all of the fritters have been used up, adding more oil to the frying pan as you go so the fritters don’t stick to the pan.
  5. Roughly chop the mint and stir it into a few tablespoons of vegan yoghurt.
  6. Serve the fritters alongside the sweet chilli sauce and mint yoghurt.

Thanks for this tasty and EASY recipe! I’ve shared this on my FB site “Super Quick Plant-Based Recipes” https://www.facebook.com/SuperQuickPBRecipes/ – where I feature daily recipes (links to other sites) that take 20 min. or less to prepare and use as few ingredients as possible. My group will love this and your site!

Can you do these without the nutritional yeast? I’ve avoided buying it up to now and try to find recipes where it’s not needed as it’s relatively expensive and only available in large amounts here. Could I do this with just the chickpea flour and maybe just add less water?

Hey Amanda, we don’t use nutritional yeast in this recipe 🙂

Can this be done with almond flour instead of the chickpea? That’s not an ingredient I keep in my kitchen.

Ben, So Vegan April 5, 2020 - 5:12 pm

Hey Cortney. We’re not sure to be honest because we don’t often use almond flour. Chickpea flour is great at absorbing moisture and it helps to bind the fritters, but we’re not sure if almond flour will do the same

Are these freezable?

Hi Sarah, yes you could freeze these 🙂 Best, Roxy

I was looking for a fritter dip I saw on Instagram to go with the non spicy fritters with the zucchini type vegetable and corn, but I can’t find it

I have a copy of this recipe which does not have the water added. This batter was very wet as I did add the water. The oil popped and spattered with the moisture. I tried a batch in the air fryer (mine looks more like a tall toaster oven) but they were so wet they were hard to flip. I think next time I will wait to see if I need to add the water.

Can the mixture be made ahead of time and kept in the fridge for a few hours before cooking?
