Prawn fritters

γαριδοκεφτέδες
Prep Time 35 minutes
Cook Time 30 minutes
Total Time 1 hour 5 minutes
Servings 4

Ingredients

  • 600 g Green (uncooked) prawns roughly chopped (use pulse option on a food processor)
  • 1 Red onion finely chopped
  • 2 Shallots / scallions finely chopped
  • 2 tbsp Ouzo
  • 1 tbsp Dill finely chopped
  • 1 tbsp Parsley finely chopped
  • 1 tsp Paprika
  • 1 tsp Dried mint finely crumbled
  • 1 Egg lightly beaten
  • 1 tsp Lemon zest
  • 2-3 tbsp Brown rice flour
  • Extra virgin olive oil for frying

Instructions

  1. Mix all the ingredients together with a spoon in a large bowl until well incorporated and become a homogenous mixture. Add a little more rice flour, if you think the mix is not coming together - it should be fairly sticky mix. Leave to chill in a refrigerator for about 30 minutes.

  2. Remove from the refrigerator and, using wet hands, shape small balls evenly.

  3. Place a fry pan on medium heat and fill to about 1cm in height with olive oil. Fry the prawn fritters turning now and then to get a uniform golden colour.
  4. Remove with a skimmer from the pan and let them drain on paper towels. Serve immediately with plenty of lemon.
