Cook Time 20 minutes
Course Appetizer, Snack
Servings 20 small fritters

Equipment

  • Food processor

Ingredients
  

Fritters:

  • 225 g halloumi cut into 1cm cubes and soaked in boiling water for 10 mins, then patted dry
  • 1 red pepper roasted (half will be used for the fritters, half for the sauce)
  • Handful of mint
  • Handful of parsley
  • 2 tsp olive oil
  • 1 tsp salt
  • 2 tbsp corn flour

Sauce:

  • 4 tbsp mayo vegan or regular
  • 1/2 of the roasted red pepper
  • 1 red chilli
  • 1 clove of garlic
  • 1/2 tbsp lemon juice
  • 1/2 tsp salt

Instructions
 

  • To roast your red pepper, slice lengthways, de-vein and de-seed, drizzle with olive oil and a pinch of salt. Place in an 180'C oven for 15-20 mins or until softened. Half will be used with the fritters and the other half with the sauce
  • Blitz your fritter ingredients together in a food processor, it will resemble a cous-cous like consistency but will hold together when shaped
  • Shape into fritters, I went on the smaller side with around 1.5tbsp of the mix for each
  • Either air fry at 190'C for 7-10 mins, flipping these over half way to ensure even cooking. OR bake at 190'C fan/210'C conventional oven for around 15-20 mins, flipping half way. (note: baking tends to cause these to flatten out slightly so keep your fritters thicker to compensate for this)
  • Blitz your mayo ingredients together in a food processor until smooth
