Kumara, Carrot & Courgette Fritters

Method

Fritter Batter 

Place the grated kumara, carrot and courgette in an old tea towel and squeeze any excess liquid out of the vegetables. 

Transfer the vegetables to a large bowl and add the remaining fritter ingredients. Start with ½ a cup of rice flour and if your batter appears too wet, add a little more. 

Heat the oven to 160ºC regular bake and place a wire rack on an oven tray. 

To Assemble

Heat 1 tablespoon of oil in a large pan over a medium heat. Fry the fritters in batches, pushing down on them with the back of a spatula as they cook so they’re thin and crisp. Add extra oil to the pan as required. Place the cooked fritters on the prepared tray and keep them warm in the oven. 

Grill or fry the bacon until crisp, drain any excess fat with paper towels. 

Serve the fritters with bacon, sliced avocado, lemon wedges and if you like, sour cream and hot sauce.
