Ever received a CSA box full of root vegetables and had no idea what to do with them? Problem solved: Make fritters! These fritters are so tasty you’ll fall in love with each of these underused veggies.
Super colorful, savory, lightly sweet fritters that are perfect as an impressive appetizer and require just 30 minutes from start to finish! We ROOT for you to make these crispy root vegetable fritters ASAP!
This recipe starts out with sautéing your choice of root veggies with onion, garlic, salt, and pepper. This brings out their natural sweetness and infuses them with flavor!
For the root veggies, we love a combination of parsnip, rutabaga, beet, carrot, and sweet potato. It’s a vibrant mix that shines together and makes you forget your less-loved veggies are in there (sorry, parsnip)!
Next, we combine the sautéed veggies with cooked quinoa, a chickpea “egg” (chickpea flour + water) for binding, salt for flavor, and gluten-free flour (or all-purpose) to soak up moisture and encourage crispiness.
