Comments
So glad I tried this recipe! Great way to incorporate greens into my snacks. Would go well with sweet chilli or mint raita but nice by themselves too. Despite the huge shards of broccolini, the fritters hold together really well once you start cooking. Mine turned out really flat and didn't fluff up at all like the picture above but oh well. I wouldn't want to eat this every day but they definitely have a nice salty and veggie flavour.
I put these on a flat bread toastie maker to warm up for breakfast the next day and delicious!!! They Remind me of savoury pikelets.
