To make 12 fritters, you'll need:
- 1 cup cooked lentils
- 1 cup fresh spinach, chopped
- 1/2 cup chickpea flour
- 1/4 cup nutritional yeast
- 1/4 cup chopped onion
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 tsp cumin
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1/4 tsp black pepper
- 1/4 cup water
- Oil for frying
To start, combine the lentils, spinach, chickpea flour, nutritional yeast, onion, garlic, cumin, salt, and pepper in a large bowl. Mix well, then add the water and stir until everything is evenly combined.
Heat a large skillet over medium-high heat and add enough oil to coat the bottom. Using a spoon or cookie scoop, drop the lentil mixture into the hot oil and flatten slightly with a spatula. Cook for 2-3 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and crispy.
Serve the fritters hot with your favorite dipping sauce. They're crispy on the outside, soft and savory on the inside, and bursting with flavor. You won't even miss the meat!
