Veggie fritters are extremely popular with vegans, but they often follow a similar formula. The majority of plant-based fritters are made with zucchini, broccoli, and corn, but have you ever considered giving bell peppers a try?

In addition to bell peppers, this recipe also calls for carrots and potatoes, and you can spice things up by adding chili peppers to the mix. To make the recipe 100% vegan, you can replace dairy cheese with a plant-based alternative and serve them with your favorite vegan dip.

Ingredients

  • 2 bell peppers
  • 1 chili pepper
  • 2 carrots
  • 2 potatoes, boiled and peeled
  • 190 g cheese of choice
  • salt and pepper
  • oil
  • flour (optional)

Instructions

  1. After boiling your potatoes, peel them and use a cheese grater to grate them. Repeat the process with your carrots and cheese.
  2. Place your eggs in a big bowl and whisk them with a fork before adding the potato mixture to the bowl and stirring all the ingredients together until well combined.
  3. Cut your peppers into tiny pieces and stir them with the rest of the ingredients.
  4. Season the mixture with a pinch of salt and pepper, and mix until well combined.
  5. Shape the mixture into the fritters, and add some flour if they’re not holding well together.
  6. Fry the fritters in heated oil on medium or medium high heat, for about 3-4 minutes on each side until golden brown.
  7. Before serving the fritters, place them in a paper-lined plate to get rid of excess oil.
