Ingredients
2 cups shredded cabbage
4 eggs
½ cup all-purpose flour
¼ cup chopped onions
2 cloves minced garlic
Salt and pepper to taste
Oil for frying
Directions
Prep Cabbage Mixture: In a large bowl, combine the shredded cabbage, chopped onions, minced garlic, and a pinch of salt. Let sit for 10 minutes to slightly soften the cabbage.
Make the Batter: In another bowl, whisk the eggs, then gradually add the flour, stirring until smooth and thick.
Combine & Season: Mix the cabbage mixture into the egg batter. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
Fry: Heat oil in a pan over medium heat. Spoon the mixture into the pan and slightly flatten with a spatula to form fritters.
Cook: Fry for 3-4 minutes on each side until golden brown and crispy.
Drain & Serve: Place fritters on paper towels to absorb excess oil. Serve hot and enjoy!
Expert Tips for Success
Drain cabbage well to prevent soggy fritters.
Add spices like paprika or cumin for extra flavor.
Use a non-stick pan or cast-iron skillet for best crispiness.
For a lighter version, bake fritters in the oven instead of frying.
Serving Suggestions
These fritters pair perfectly with sour cream, yogurt-based dips, or a sweet chili sauce.
Serve them alongside soups, salads, or as part of a brunch spread.
