Spiced Aubergine Fritters with Coconut & Cinnamon Yoghurt

These gluten free and plant-based fritters are a great entrée or snack. The perfect combination of crispy, gooey and yummy!   

Serves 2-4

INGREDIENTS

  • 1 medium-sized aubergine
  • Half a packet (95g) Fogdog Gluten Free Fantastic Fritter Mix
  • 2 tbsp garam masala powder
  • 1 tbsp cumin seeds
  • 200ml (approx) sparkling water
  • Handful of coriander leaves
  • Salt & pepper
  • Oil for frying
  • 100g plain coconut yoghurt
  • 1 tsp cinnamon powder

INSTRUCTIONS

  1. In a bowl whisk together the Gluten Free Fantastic Fritter Mix, garam masala and cumin seeds with enough sparkling water to form a loose batter.

  2. Top and tail the aubergine, then slice widthways into 1cm thick discs.
  3. Heat 2-3cm of oil in a frying pan over a high heat.
  4. Whisk the batter again so that it is smooth and fairly runny, similar in consistency to pancake batter.
  5. Now fry the aubergine slices in 2/3 batches. Dip each slice in the batter and ensure both sides are coated and gently slide into the oil.
  6. Fry for roughly 3 minutes on each side, turning with a spatula. They’re ready when they’re golden brown on both sides.
  7. Place on a drying rack to let the excess oil drip off, then place on a plate. Garnish with chopped coriander and sprinkle with salt and pepper.
  8. Stir the cinnamon into the coconut yoghurt and serve alongside the fritters. Enjoy!
