• •1/4 cup chickpea flour
• •2 large eggs
• •1/4 cup finely chopped fresh parsley
• •2 green onions, finely chopped
• •1 teaspoon ground cumin
• •1 teaspoon ground coriander
• •1/2 teaspoon smoked paprika
• •1/2 teaspoon salt

Instructions

1. 1

   In a large bowl, combine grated carrots, all-purpose flour, chickpea flour, eggs, parsley, green onions, cumin, coriander, smoked paprika, salt, black pepper, and red chili flakes if using. Mix until well combined.

2. 2

   Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.

3. 3

   Scoop approximately 2 tablespoons of the carrot mixture for each fritter and flatten slightly into a patty shape. Place into the skillet, ensuring not to overcrowd.

4. 4

   Cook fritters for 3–4 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and cooked through. Remove and set on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil. Repeat with the remaining mixture, adding more olive oil as needed.

5. 5

   In a small bowl, mix Greek yogurt, lemon juice, dill, and minced garlic. Adjust salt to taste.

6. 6

   Serve the warm fritters with the lemon dill yogurt as a dipping sauce.
