Equipment

  • non-stick skillet
  • box grater
  • Mandoline slicer
  • Spatula

Ingredients
  

Cabbage Fritter Batter

  • 16 oz shredded cabbage
  • 2 med-small carrots grated
  • 2-3 scallions or 1 regular onion
  • 3 large eggs
  • 4-5 tablespoon flour see notes for gluten free or grain free
  • 2 cloves garlic minced

Seasonings

  • 1 teaspoon sea salt
  • ½ teaspoon black pepper ground
  • ½ teaspoon paprika or smoked paprika
  • ½ teaspoon coriander ground, optional
  • 3-4 tablespoon fat for frying ghee or oil of your choice

Instructions
 

Preparation

  • Shred the cabbage with a mandoline slicer for fine uniform shreds. You will need 16 oz, about 7 packed cups. Or about ⅓ of a medium head of cabbage.
  • Thinly slice 2-3 scallions (or a regular onion).
  • Grate the carrots with a box grater.
  • Mince the garlic or use the finer side of a box grater.

Combine Ingredients

  • In a large bowl add all prepared ingredients and toss lightly to combine and coat everything with egg. You can use your hands.
  • Note: The cabbage mixture might look like a slaw at first, but don’t worry, the fritters will hold together once fried.

Fry Fritters

  • Heat a non-stick skillet on medium low heat for about 3 minutes.
  • Add fat for frying and let it heat for 1 minute.
  • Form a ball in your hands and place it in the heated skillet. Press down to flatten.
  • Fry for 3 minutes per side or until golden brown and crispy. Repeat with remaining mixture.

Notes

To bake, preheat oven to 420F/215C. Portion cabbage patties and bake for 20-23 minutes, flipping halfway through. For a crispier crust, broil at the last minute. Collect any liquid from the bowl as it acts as a binding agent.
