Course: dinner, eating right, lunch
Servings: 6
- 2 cups grated raw pumpkin
- 1/4 cup Goat’s feta, crumbled
- 1/4 cup coconut flour, sifted
- 1 tbsp psyllium*
- 1 large handful coriander, chopped
- 1 tbsp chilli flakes
- 2 eggs, free range
- Sea salt & pepper, to taste
- Coconut oil, for shallow frying
To a large bowl, add grated pumpkin, feta, coconut flour, psyllium, coriander and chilli flakes. *Yes, you need psyllium. It helps to bind in gluten free recipes. Grab some from your local health food store or the health food section of the supermarket. In a separate bow, beat eggs and add to the above mixture. Combine well.
Form medium balls, moulding each well with your hands.
Heat coconut oil in a small frypan, flatten the fritters and shallow fry, flipping half way with an egg-flip. Repeat for additional fritters, adding more coconut oil each time.
If you are just serving one, you may like to store remaining fritters in the fridge and fry fresh as required. Leftovers will keep for a couple of days.
