khanf7@hotmail.co.ukI love how easy these fritters are to make. I didn't have any capsicum on hand, so I used a store-bought salsa instead. They still turned out great!

n45@hotmail.comThese fritters were a hit with my family! They're crispy on the outside and soft and flavorful on the inside. The capsicum salsa is the perfect complement, adding a bit of sweetness and acidity. I'll definitely be making these again.
