a combination of recipes I found today online... had never seen these before and they were just calling to me... so of course I HAD to make them :-) Ingredients:
mango tzatziki |
1 small mango, peeled, sliced |
1/2 cup greek yogurt |
1 garlic clove, chopped |
6 mint leaves |
1 tablespoon dill, chopped |
sea salt, to taste |
fritters |
4 ripe roma tomatoes, seeded and diced |
handful of cherry/grape tomatoes, quartered |
3 scallions, white part only, finely sliced |
1/2 cup parsley, chopped finely |
1/2 cup basil, chopped finely |
1 teaspoon dried greek oregano |
sea salt, to taste |
fresh fround black pepper |
about 1 1/2 cups self-raising flour |
canola oil, for frying |
Directions:
1. Pulse mango slices, Greek yogurt, garlic, mint, dill, salt and pepper in a food processor. Chill until ready to serve.
2. In a large bowl, mix the tomatoes, scallions, parsley, basil, oregano, salt and pepper together in a large bowl. See Photo
3. Mix the flour into the tomato mixture to make a batter that will hold its shape. Add a little water if too thick, a little more flour if too thin.
4. Heat about 1/2 inch of canola oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Shape two tablespoons worth of tomato mixture into a round in your hand, flatten, and slide into the oil (you need flour to keep them from sticking to your hands). Fry until golden brown on each side, about 2 minutes each side. Drain on paper towels and repeat with the remainder of the batter See Photo. Serve hot or at room temperature with sauce.
