Cauliflower Carrot Fritters

For this post, I am sharing my next food recipe, a clever way to disguise the vegetables and get everyone (me included!) to eat vegetables!! So here goes my post on Cauliflower Carrot Fritters  :

Ingredients:

* Water (to cook vege)
* Cauliflower florets - quantity up to you
* Carrots - quantity up to you
* All-purpose flour
* Salt and pepper to taste
* 1 egg, lightly beaten
* Oil for frying fritters
* Optional: You can put in other types of vegetables (broccoli etc), cheese for saltier taste, onions

Methods:
* Put the vegetables into a pot of water, bring water to boil and cook for about 4-5 minutes.
* Drain the cauliflower and carrots before you transfer them to a cutting board and finely chop.
* Place the chopped veggies in a large bowl; add in the flour and stir to coat.
* Fold in the salt, pepper and egg.
* Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
* Put the fritter mixture one at a time, I just use my hand to make a small bite sized balls. Cook until golden brown, about 4 minutes, then carefully flip over and cook for about 4 minutes more. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate to absorb excess oil if needed.


Outcome:

For a person who does not like to eat vegetables (ehem, ehem, that's me!!!) I would have to say these are pretty good! I found myself chomping away without feeling weird or giddy that I'm eating vegetables! Only thing I would change when I'm making this again in future is to try other veges and make it more salty a wee bit.
