Zutaten:
- 2 x 400g (14oz) tins chickpeas (drained and rinsed)
- 60 g (1/2 cup) plain flour (all-purpose flour)
- ½ teaspoon salt
- ½ teaspoon pepper
- 1 teaspoon cumin
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 2 cloves garlic (peeled and minced)
- Zest of 1 lemon
- 75 g (3/4 cup) grated Parmesan cheese
- 3 tablespoons finely chopped fresh parsley
- 1 egg
- 4 tablespoons olive oil
- Sweet chilli sauce
- Crispy salad and/or coleslaw
Arbeitsschritte:
- Preheat the oven to a very low setting – to keep the fritters warm (they will need to be cooked in batches). Put a baking tray to one side for the fritters.
- Place the drained chickpeas in a bowl and mash with a potato masher until the chickpeas are well broken down (it’s fine if the mixture is a little lumpy). Alternatively, you can place in a food processor and blitz a few times, until the chickpeas are broken down.
- Add the flour, salt, pepper, cumin, paprika, garlic, lemon zest, parmesan, parsley and egg and mix together using a fork or your hands until combined.
- Form into 12 patties.
- Heat 2 tablespoons of the oil in a large frying pan (skillet) over a medium-high heat.
- Add six of the patties and fry for 5-6 minutes, turning once, until golden brown.
- Remove from the pan, place on the baking tray and place in the oven to keep warm.
- Add the remaining 2 tablespoons of oil to the pan and fry the remaining 6 patties in the same way.
- Once cooked, serve 3-per-person, drizzled with sweet chilli sauce. I liked to serve mine alongside a crispy salad or with crunchy coleslaw.
