Categories     Lunch

Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 11

3 medium onions, peeled and diced ((about 1 lb.))
1 medium carrot, shredded
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 cup grated Parmesan
2 eggs
1/2 cup flour
1/3 cup chopped parsley
1/2 tsp. paprika
1/2 tsp. salt
1/2 tsp. pepper
1/4 cup oil, for frying

Steps:

  • In a large bowl mix together all of the ingredients besides the oil.
  • Place a cast iron or non-stick pan over medium heat until hot. Add the oil and swirl to coat the pan (a non-stick pan needs less oil). Scoop out 2- to 3-tablespoon mounds of the onion mixture into the pan, flattening the mounds slightly with a spoon and spacing them about one inch apart.
  • Cook the fritters for 2 to 3 minutes, flip them once, and cook them for an additional 1 to 2 minutes until they're golden brown and cooked through. (*See recipe note below for baking instructions).
  • Serve warm with yogurt or sour cream or my Beet Aioli (recipe in the notes section).
