Notes

  • Extra Crispiness: If you prefer crispier fritters, add an extra tablespoon of flour or fry them in a mix of butter and olive oil.
  • Baking Option: For a healthier version, bake the fritters at 200°C (400°F) for 20-25 minutes, flipping halfway through.
  • Storage: Store leftovers in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days. Reheat in a pan or oven to retain crispiness.
  • Freezing: Freeze cooked fritters in a single layer, then reheat in the oven when ready to eat.
