VEGETABLE POTATO FRITTERS

These potato fritters with red lentils are super easy to make and so delicious! They’re best with spicy sriracha mayonnaise. The recipe for these fritters is of course 100 % vegan!

I’ve always used to make the best vegetable fritters in the whole wide world. I just couldn’t get enough of them! I haven’t made fritters for quite a while, but these vegetable fritters with red lentils turned out so delicious and comforting.

By using red lentils you can add some extra protein to your fritters.  If you’re looking for more vegan potato recipes, you might also like my papas bravas with aioli. They’re also delicious with the sriracha mayonnaise. I also love adding potatoes to my vegan chickpea curry.

Ingredients

For the vegetable potato fritters:

• 3/4 cup red lentils
• 1 small red onion, chopped
• 2 cloves of garlic
• 2 medium-sized potatoes (raw)
• 1 medium-sized carrot
• 5 tablespoons all-purpose flour
• 1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika powder
• 1 teaspoon regular paprika powder
• 1 teaspoon majoram
• salt
• black pepper, to taste

For the sriracha mayonnaise:

• 3 tablespoons vegan mayonnaise
• 1 teaspoon tomato paste
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder
• 1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika powder
• salt
• black pepper, to taste
• sriracha sauce, to taste

Instructions

1. Cook the red lentils according to the instructions on the package. Peel and grate the potatoes and the carrot.
2. In a large bowl, combine them with the cooked red lentils, the garlic, the onion, the flour, and the spices and stir well.
3. Heat some oil in a large pan, and add about 1 1/2 heaped tablespoons for each fritter. Cook them on medium heat in a son-sticky pan for three to four minutes on each side. Alternatively, you can also make them in the oven for an oil-free version (about 20 minutes, flipping halfway).
4. For the vegan sriracha mayonnaise, combine all ingredients and stir well.
5. Serve the fritters with a green salad and the sriracha mayonnaise. Enjoy!
