| Malabar Spinach Fritter |
My friend aptly commented, “I wish I had a snack-gifting
aunt!” Oh, it is really bless to have an aunt who is an amazing cook and loves
to cook for you!
My aunt sent me some Malabar spinach fritters and it made
my evening! She made it herself from scratch, with loads of love and the leaves
were freshly collected from her own garden. What could be a better gift for a
happy fat vegan?!
Here is how we make it.
We clean the leaves thoroughly and then shred them.
We add salt, a little turmeric powder, a little poppy
seeds and shredded onion and green chilli to chickpea flour ("besan" we call
it) and mix everything very well.
Now we add water little by little and make a thick paste.
We now add the leaves to this paste and mix very well. Thickness of this
mixture would be so, that it is possible to make small, flat and round shapes
out of it which we deep fry.
We traditionally use mustard oil but you can use
sunflower oil, too.
