  • 2/3 cup (100 g) gluten-free plain/all-purpose flour - sub for regular if you do not need to be gluten-free.
  • 1 1/2 tsp baking powder (See Note 2)
  • 2 large eggs - lightly beaten
  • 1/2 cup (120 ml) milk - dairy, soy or nut milk
  • 2 cups (290 g) baby frozen peas - thawed
  • 1 1/4 cups (200 g) feta cheese - crumbled (See Note 3)
  • 1 tbsp fresh mint - finely chopped (See Note 4)
  • 4 spring/green onions - white and some green, thinly sliced
  • sea salt and freshly ground black pepper - to taste (See Note 5)
  • 2 tbsp olive oil - add more if necessary (See Note 6)

Instruction

  • Preheat your oven to 100 degrees C (200 F). (To keep the fritters warm as you cook them.)
  • To begin, make a batter by sifting the flour and baking powder into a medium size bowl. Make a well in the centre.
  • Whisk the milk and eggs together in a small bowl. Add the egg mixture to the flour and whisk until smooth.
  • Place the peas in a bowl and mash about half of them.
  • Add peas, feta, mint and spring/green onions to the batter.
  • Add sea salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste. If you wish to check the seasoning, you could cook a small patty.
  • Heat the olive oil in a large non-stick frying pan over medium heat until the oil is hot but not smoking.
  • Use a ¼ cup ice cream scoop or ¼ cup measure to add the mixture to the frying pan. With a spatula or the back of a spoon, flatten the fritters slightly and smooth the edges to shape them.
  • Cook for 2-3 minutes on each side until golden brown.Place on a plate lined with paper towel to drain excess oil. Keep warm in your preheated oven.Repeat with the remaining batter, adding extra oil if required.
