Shrimp Fritters - The Not So Creative Cook
My mom used to make fritters but I don’t know its name, or if it’s made of very small fish or shrimps. It was a very easy and simple dish but it was so yummy that I always ask for more rice. 🙂 I missed it so much and I told myself, I will make my own fritters. That’s the good thing I like about cooking – you can experiment on your ingredients without worrying too much about the outcome and adjust the ingredients or do a taste test until you feel satisfied with it. No matter how easy the dish may seem, I still feel very much happy when it turns out to be successful. Like this dish I am going to share today, you just have to gather all the ingredients you need, mix and fry. 🙂 Shrimp Fritters Recipe Ingredients: 1 cup shrimps, shells removed and deveined, cut into small pieces ¼ cup grated squash (or carrots) ¼ cup sliced green onion ¼ cup chopped onion ¼ cup chopped red bell pepper 1 ½ tsp roasted chili paste ½ tsp ground black pepper ½ tsp salt 1 tsp garlic salt 1 cup flour ½ tsp baking powder 1 tbsp cornstarch 1 tsp parsley flakes (optional) 1 large egg water, as needed Instructions: Mix everything together. (For the water, add as needed and stop when the consistency is enough for you.) Make sure they are well combined. Fry on a hot oil and flip when the other side is done. Drain on a paper towel to remove excess oil. Serve with your favorite sauce. Note: You can use chicken or flaked fish. You can put any ingredients you know that would make good fritters; just balance the water and the flour, and of course the taste. So, do some experiment and let me know. 🙂 This recipe has been updated as I missed the water in the ingredients list. Thanks, Cris, for brining this to my attention. Please follow and like us:
