Instructions
Make the lime yogurt dipping sauce. Mix the yogurt, cilantro, and lime juice in a small bowl. Sprinkle with lime zest and black pepper. Refrigerate until served.
Next, make the fritters. Place the grated carrots, green onion, cilantro, flour, baking powder, cumin, turmeric, garam masala, lime zest, eggs, water, salt and black pepper in a large bowl (or food processor to make this step faster). Mix until well combined. The mixture should be thick and sticky.
Using a 1/4 cup measure, scoop out the fritter batter and gently shape it into a disc with your hands ready for frying. Repeat the process until all the batter is used. You should get 12 fritters per batch.
Place a large non-stick frypan over medium heat. Once hot, add the oil. Gently place the fritters into the pan and lightly press with a spatula to flatten. Fry for 3-4 minutes, then flip and cook for 2 minutes until the fritters are light gold and cooked through.
Then remove the cooked fritters from the pan and place on a paper-lined plate. Repeat this process several times until all the fritters are cooked.
Serve the fritters warm with a dollop of the lime coriander yogurt.
Notes:
Storage: The fritters will keep in the fridge for 3-4 days or you can freeze them for several months. Reheat in the microwave or a pan on the stove before serving.
