One of my New Year's Resolutions is to spend more time in the kitchen. This means not heating a frozen dish or choosing one of the take out menus. No, this means actually cooking. So, I will be keeping a tally of how many times I actually cooked something that takes more than 20-30 minutes.
Today, I made some vegetable fritters. These were made from chickpea flour, sliced potatoes, chopped onions and coriander leaves. I added some water to the mix to make a thick batter; I then fried the batter in sunflower oil. The nice thing about vegetable fritters is that they can be eaten alone, or in a sauce or between a sandwich.
I decided to use some of the fritters to make a stir fry. The stir fry was comprised of the following: a quarter of an onion, one tomato, two tangerines (seeds removed beforehand), and about a table spoon of soya sauce. Last, I added chopped spinach, and then added the fritters (used four of them). Before turning off the stove, I took a small slice of lime and squeezed it on the fritters. Now I plan on eating it with some pasta (the swirly ones....called Rotini).
Below are some pictures for your enjoyment.
