Pea and Onion Fritters: A Simple Recipe with Accessible Ingredients

Who said that canned green peas can only be used in salads? Try this recipe — and your fritters will be a real find for a quick dinner or snack. A soft center, a crispy crust, and a vibrant vegetable flavor are guaranteed!

What You Will Need

  • 1 can of canned green peas
  • 2 eggs
  • 2 onions
  • 4 tablespoons of wheat flour
  • Salt and black ground pepper — to taste
  • Vegetable oil for frying

How to Cook

  1. Chop the onions into small cubes — this way they will distribute evenly in the batter.
  2. Drain the peas in a colander and pour off all the liquid, being careful to keep the peas intact.
  3. In a deep bowl, combine the peas, onions, and eggs, and mix thoroughly.
  4. Add salt and pepper to taste, then gradually add the flour. The mixture should become thick and sticky — so the fritters hold their shape.
  5. Heat a skillet with vegetable oil. Using a spoon, drop the batter to form small fritters. Fry for 1–2 minutes on each side until golden brown.
  6. Transfer the cooked fritters to paper towels — this will remove excess fat.

How to Serve

It is best to serve the fritters hot, with your favorite sauce: sour cream with herbs, garlic sauce, or yogurt dip. They are great for dinner or as a snack at the table.

A simple set of ingredients, minimal hassle, and the result — a pile of delicious, aromatic, and hearty fritters. Try it — and this little culinary find will surely become your favorite!
