These cabbage fritters are a delightful blend of crispy and tender textures, offering a comforting and savory taste that’s hard to resist. Each bite delivers a satisfying crunch on the outside, while the inside remains soft and flavorful, thanks to the combination of finely shredded cabbage and aromatic garlic.
Ingredients:
- 1 medium cabbage, finely shredded
- 1 small onion, finely chopped
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 2 large eggs
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- Salt and pepper to taste
- Oil for frying
Instructions:
- Prepare the Cabbage: Place the shredded cabbage in a large bowl and sprinkle with a pinch of salt. Let it sit for about 10 minutes to release excess moisture. Afterward, squeeze the cabbage in a clean kitchen towel to remove as much liquid as possible.
- Mix the Ingredients: In a large bowl, combine the squeezed cabbage, chopped onion, minced garlic, and Parmesan cheese. In a separate bowl, beat the eggs and then stir them into the cabbage mixture. Add the flour, baking powder, salt, and pepper, and mix until everything is well combined.
- Heat the Oil: Heat a few tablespoons of oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
- Fry the Fritters: Drop spoonfuls of the cabbage mixture into the hot oil, pressing them down slightly to form small patties. Cook for about 2-3 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and crispy. Remove the fritters and drain on paper towels.
- Serve: Serve the cabbage fritters warm, with a side of sour cream or your favorite dipping sauce.
