Served with a punchy dipping sauce, these cabbage & carrot fritters have a delicious Asian twist. This quick and easy recipe makes a tasty lunch or dinner. This dish works also really well as an appetiser.

We have had fun trying different flavour mixes and have settled for a mix of ginger, coriander, mint, lime, cumin and garlic. So good!

How to make these cabbage & carrot fritters

This is a very straightforward recipe. Just make sure the cabbage is finely chopped. The best way to do this is with a mandoline or a very sharp knife. I used the coarse side of a cheese grater for the carrots.

The vegetables are mixed with beaten eggs, flour, grated ginger, chopped mint, chopped coriander, garlic powder, soy sauce, lime juice, ground cumin and salt.

While the mixture is resting for 10 minutes you can prepare the dipping sauce, a cracking mix of sweet chilli sauce, lime juice, sesame oil, rice vinegar, tamari sauce, mint and dark brown sugar. Trust me, it is utterly addictive.

The fritters are cooked in oil in a frying pan. Make sure the oil is very hot before adding the first fritter. To make sure the fritters are evenly shaped I use a round cookie cutter as a guide, adding the vegetable mixture inside the cookie-cutter.

I like to serve these cabbage & carrot fritters with chopped spring onions, red chilli peppers and some (dairy-free) yoghurt.

Cabbage is vastly underrated in my opinion, while in fact, it is quite versatile. It is perfect for stews, soups, salads, stir-fries, curries etc..

One of our favourite family recipes is this tasty Cabbage Curry below, where the cabbage is cooked in a light coconut milk sauce with carrots, tomatoes, ginger, curry powder, raisins and chickpeas.

Equipment

  • salad bowl
  • Frying pan

Ingredients
 
 

  • 150 g green cabbage – finely chopped
  • 175 g carrots – grated on the coarse side of a cheese grater
  • 2 organic eggs beaten
  • 100 g plain flour
  • 2 Tbsp freshly grated ginger
  • 2 Tbsp chopped mint
  • 2 Tbsp chopped coriander
  • 1 tsp garlic powder
  • 1 Tbsp soy sauce
  • juice of 1 lime
  • 1 tsp ground cumin
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • vegetable oil to fry

DIPPING SAUCE:

  • 2 Tbsp sweet chilli sauce
  • 2 Tbsp rice vinegar
  • 2 Tbsp toasted sesame oil
  • 2 Tbsp lime juice
  • 1 tsp tamari sauce
  • 2 tsp dark brown sugar
  • 1 Tbsp freshly chopped mint

TO SERVE:

  • spring onions
  • red chilli
  • dairy-free yoghurt

Instructions
 

  • In a large salad bowl mix together the finely chopped cabbage, grated carrot, beaten eggs, flour, grated ginger, chopped mint, chopped coriander, garlic powder, soy sauce, lime juice, ground cumin and salt. Once the mixture is well blended set aside for 10 mins.
  • Prepare the dipping sauce by mixing together in a bowl the sweet chilli sauce, rice vinegar, toasted sesame oil, lime juice, tamari sauce, dark brown sugar and freshly chopped mint.
  • Get a large, deep frying pan and fill it with vegetable oil (you need the oil level to be around 2cm [0.8 inches] high). When the oil is hot, spoon 1 generous tablespoon of vegetable mixture in the pan (to make sure the fritters are evenly shaped I use a round cookie cutter as a guide, adding the vegetable mixture inside the cookie-cutter). Flatten the top of the fritter. Repeat to make a second fritter. Depending on the size of your pan, you should be able to cook 3 to 4 fritters at once.
  • Cook for 2 to 3 mins until you can flip the fritters on the other side. When the fritters are golden, transfer to a side plate lined with some paper towel until you cook the rest.
  • Serve the fritters warm topped with chopped spring onion, red chilli peppers and (dairy-free) yoghurt as well as the dipping sauce on the side.

This scrumptious vegan chocolate courgette cake is a perfect example of how delicious plant-based baking can be. Pure indulgence! This is one of the most popular dessert recipes on the blog.

The courgettes are the secret and (very) discreet ingredient. You cannot taste them but they add moisture and texture as well as 1 of your 5 a day to this scrumptious chocolate cake.

Grab the recipe on the blog. Link in my bio.

Bursting with flavours this Garlic & Tomato Pasta makes a delicious and easy summer dish that is perfect for this hot weather. You can serve it slightly warm or at room temperature. It is also scrumptious the next day as a cold leftover.

This is an old family recipe that back home we call Pâtes à l’ail. Growing up, my Sicilian great-aunt (yes I am a 1/4 Italian in case you did not know 😉) would make it for us in the summer when tomatoes are at their best. 

Like any recipe that has been passed down through generations, creating a written version of it, involved quite a few phone calls between my mum and one of our cousins. Everyone in the family makes this Garlic & Tomato Pasta from memory, adding their own twist and using approximate quantities of ingredients. My version is even more different as I have added cannellini beans for protein.

You can find the recipe on the blog. Link in my bio.
