These fritters turned out light and fluffy and are quite filling. I spiced them up with the addition of chilli powder and cummin, but you could skip that if you like.
I also threw in some finely chopped coriander and this could be replaced by parsley or skipped altogether.
Also if you want to make these really low carb then increase the amount of almond meal.
Great for an easy dinner for 2 – lovely with avocado salad – with lots leftover for breakfast the next day or to share with friends at the office as I did.
