Ingredients

2 large about 340g carrots, peeled, coarsely grated
2 teaspoons finely grated fresh ginger
2 tablespoons besan (chickpea flour)
1 egg white
2 tablespoons coarsely chopped coriander

Tips

- Use a box grater with large holes to create long, thin carrot shreds. This will help the fritters stay together better. - Be sure to squeeze out as much excess water from the grated carrots as possible. This will help prevent the fritters from becoming soggy. - Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing will make the fritters tough. - Use a large spoon or cookie scoop to drop the batter into the hot oil. This will help ensure that the fritters are evenly sized and cooked. - Fry the fritters in batches, being careful not to overcrowd the pan. Overcrowding will cause the fritters to stick together and not cook evenly. - Serve the fritters warm with your favorite dipping sauce.
