Cooking

Pink sauce

Equipment

  • Oven
  • Bowl
  • Skillet
  • Rack

Instructions

  1. Step 1: Preheat the oven to 100°C/210°F.

  2. Step 2: Steam the broccoli until tender, then roughly chop it.

    Tip: If boiling the broccoli instead, leave it in a colander for a while so excess water can steam out.

  3. Step 3: Put the broccoli and the remaining fritter ingredients in a bowl and mix well.

  4. Step 4: Add enough oil to a skillet to cover the base. Heat over medium-high heat.

  5. Step 5: Spoon 1/4 cup of the mixture into the skillet and pat it down.

    Tip: A standard ice cream scoop with a lever holds 1/4 cup. The fritters do not need to be perfectly round; uneven edges make more crispy ridges. Use two pans if possible.

  6. Step 6: Cook for 2.5 minutes until deep golden, then flip and cook for 2 minutes.

  7. Step 7: Transfer the fritters to a rack and keep them warm in the oven.

  8. Step 8: Mix the sour cream or Greek yogurt, ketchup and lemon to make the pink sauce. Serve with the fritters.

Notes

If you boil the broccoli instead of steaming it, leave it in a colander for a while so excess water can drain and steam away.

If you do not have Parmesan, use shredded cheese. The fritters will have crispy edges and a juicier, cheesier center, rather than the same crisp crust all over.
