Ingredients:
- 1 small head of cabbage, finely shredded
- 1 small onion, finely chopped
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 cup all-purpose flour
- 2 large eggs, beaten
- 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley
- 1 tsp baking powder
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp black pepper
- 1/4 tsp paprika
- 1/4 tsp ground cumin (optional)
- Olive oil or vegetable oil for frying
Instructions:
- Prepare the Cabbage:
- In a large bowl, toss the shredded cabbage with a pinch of salt. Let it sit for about 10 minutes, then squeeze out the excess moisture using a clean kitchen towel.
- Mix Ingredients:
- Add the chopped onion, minced garlic, flour, beaten eggs, grated Parmesan, chopped parsley, baking powder, salt, pepper, paprika, and cumin (if using) to the bowl with the cabbage. Mix well until all ingredients are fully combined.
- Form Fritters:
- Heat a generous amount of oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Once the oil is hot, use a spoon or your hands to form small patties from the cabbage mixture and carefully place them in the skillet.
- Cook Fritters:
- Fry the fritters for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and crispy. Be careful not to overcrowd the skillet; cook in batches if necessary.
- Drain and Serve:
- Remove the fritters from the skillet and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil. Serve hot, optionally with a dipping sauce like sour cream or a tangy yogurt dip.
