Swede and Feta Fritters [vegetarian]

Swede fritters

A couple of weeks ago some swedes arrived in my Veg Box and I wasn’t quite sure what to do with them.

It is a bit hot for soup so I made these Swede and Feta Fritters (using the spring onions from my Veg Box too) which were a hit with everyone.

They are easy to make but take a bit of patience to cook. I use a pancake pan where 3 can fit together.

Best served with a crunchy salad and eaten warm.

For anyone in the US, please note that swedes are the same thing as rutabagas.

Instructions
 

  • Peel the swedes and potatoes. Grate both in a large salad bowl with the coarser side of a cheese grater.
  • Press any extra moisture out with a kitchen towel.
  • Beat the eggs together in a separate bowl. Mix in spring onions, chives and crumbled feta.
  • Pour the mixture over the grated vegetables and mix until well blended.
  • Add the flour. Mix again until you have a slightly sticky vegetable paste.
  • Season to taste.
  • Heat some oil in a non-stick frying pan.
  • Shape each fritter by hand (around 2 generous tablespoon or 1cm thick and 10 cm diameter).
  • Under medium to high heat, fry 2-3 fritters at the time (depending on the size of your pan) for around 5 mins on each side until golden brown.
  • Keep the cooked fritters warm covered in the oven until you are ready to serve them.
