CORN, ASPARAGUS AND ZUCCHINI FRITTERS
Ingredients
- 1 bunch fresh asparagus
- 1 medium zucchini
- 1 cup fresh corn kernels cooked
- 2 Tbsp ground flaxseed + 6 Tbsp warm water
- 5 Tbsp whole wheat flour
- 1 tsp dried thyme
- 1/2 tsp dried parsley
- 1/2 tsp salt
- black pepper to taste
- 6 Tbsp plain yogurt or sour cream or vegan alternative
- 1 clove garlic crushed
- 3 tsp dried dill
- 1 Tbsp lemon juice
- Chives chopped (for garnish)
Instructions
- In a small bowl, combine ground flaxseed with warm water, mix well, and set aside (in the fridge) for about 10 minutes until it is well combined and a gel has formed.
- Rise asparagus and trim the woody ends off. Cut the ends off the zucchini and rinse.
- Run the asparagus and zucchini through the food processor with the shredding blade attachment.
- In a large mixing bowl, combine shredded asparagus and zucchini, corn (thawed if using frozen), flour, salt, pepper, thyme, parsley, and flax egg. Stir to combine.
- Spread a thin layer of coconut oil on a large saute pan then place over medium heat.
- Form cakes with your hands and place on saute pan. Make the fritters as thin as possible; this will make them crispy. Use your spatula to flatten once on the pan.
- Cook for about 3-4 minutes on each side or until browned.
- In a separate bowl, combine vegenaise, garlic, dill, and lemon juice and stir until well combined. Top your fritters with this delicious sauce, chopped chives, and fresh or dried dill.
