Ingredients
  

  • 5 roma tomatoes diced
  • 3/4 onion finely diced*
  • 1 teaspoon oregano
  • 1/2 teaspoon thyme
  • 1 tablespoon fresh parsley
  • 1 garlic clove pressed
  • Salt and pepper
  • 11/2 cups flour**
  • 1 tablespoon bread crumbs optional
  • 1/2 cup olive oil for frying

Instructions
 

  • Add diced tomatoes to mixing bowl.
  • Add diced onions, oregano, thyme, parsley, garlic, salt and pepper, mix well.
  • Add 1 cup flour, mix well and place in fridge for 30 minutes.
  • Remove and add remaining flour little by little. You want it to resemble a pancake style batter.
  • If using bread crumbs, mix in now. This is optional and gives it an extra crunch.
  • Heat oil in pan and add one spoonful of the tomato mixture to create one fritter.
  • Cook 2-3 minutes on each side, remove and place on a plate lined with a paper towel to absorb excess oil.
  • Repeat until all mixture is used.
  • Serve hot.

Notes

*if you don't like onion, you may cook them for 5 minutes to tame their flavor. Do this as your first step, set aside to cool and then add in as normal.
**add as much flour as needed to create a batter consistency.
Makes about 12-14 fritters, depending on size.
