Ingredients

2 eggs

2 tbsp gluten-free flour

1 1/2 cups raw broccoli crumb (approximately 1 head of raw broccoli blitzed in a food processor)

1/2 cup fresh herbs – parsley, mint, coriander − chopped

1/4 cup pine nuts, toasted

1 tbsp lemon zest

1/2 tsp sea salt and a decent grind black pepper

Oil, for shallow-frying

Topping

2 tbsp sour cream

Method

Whisk the eggs and flour to a smooth batter. Stir through the broccoli crumb, herbs, pine nuts, zest and seasoning. Mix thoroughly.

Heat 1cm of the oil in a frypan. Cook in batches, spooning enough batter into the oil to make 10-12cm fritters. Cook until dark golden, then flip and fry until cooked through.

Serve the fritters warm, topped with sour cream, spinach leaves, tomatoes, chutney and a drizzle of [pomegranate molasses](https://www.foodtolove.co.nz/recipes/pomegranate-molasses-3749|target=”_blank”).
