Chickpea Potato Fritters with Tamarind Chutney
Makes 10-15 fritters
Ingredients
2 small potatoes, peeled and grated
1/4 cup diced onions
1 1/2 cups chickpea flour
1 tsp cumin
1 cup water
Salt and pepper
Canola or vegetable oil
Parsley to garnish
For the Tamarind Chutney
1/4-1/2 cup brown sugar
1 cup water
2-3 tbs tamarind paste
1 tsp cumin
1 tsp ginger powder
Salt and pepper
1. In a large bowl, combine all of the ingredients for the fritters, except for the water. Slowly pour the water, while mixing all of the ingredients. A batter should form.
2. Scoop about a spoonful of the batter onto a pan of oil over high heat. After about 30-40 seconds, flip the fritter. You may be able to fit up to 4 fritters in the pan. Place the finished fritters on a plate with a napkin to absorb any excess oil.
3. For the tamarind chutney, combine all the ingredients into a small pot, and let it boil for 5 minutes. Turn the heat to low, and let the chutney cook for another 10-15 minutes.
4. Garnish the fritters with parsley or cilantro. Enjoy!
