Yield:  8 fritters

Ingredients

Fritters

• 3 cups grated carrot
• 2 green onions, sliced into thin rounds
• 1/2 tsp. salt
• 1/4 tsp. pepper
• 2 T. flour
• 1 large egg
• 2 T. canola oil

Sauce

• 6 ounces plain yogurt
• 2 tsp. chopped fresh dill
• 1 T. lemon juice
• salt and pepper, to taste

Preparation

Fritters
Mix together carrot, onion, salt, pepper, flour and egg. If necessary, add more flour a little at a time until cohesive but not overly wet batter is formed.

In deep frying pan over medium-high heat, heat canola oil. Once oil is heated through, carefully drop 1/4 cup batter into pan, and fry for approximately 4 minutes on each side, turning down heat as necessary to maintain oil temperature. Remove cooked fritters to a paper-towel-lined tray and repeat until all batter is used.

Sauce
Whisk together yogurt, dill and lemon juice. Add salt and pepper to taste. Serve with fritters.
