Gromperekichelcher-Luxembourg Potato Fritters#EattheWorld

Luxembourg potato fritters called Gromperekichelcher. These are awesome crispy fritters made of grated potatoes, onions, parsley, flour and eggs. These are made flat, but I used a tablespoon to shallow fry  them.  They were delicious, but authentically, these should be formed flat like a small pancake and pan fried. We enjoyed as a side dish with our lunch.

Serves 2 
Ingredients

2 Medium Potatoes
1 Small Onion
2 Tablespoons Heaped Freshly Chopped Parsley
2 Small Eggs
½ Tablespoon Heaped Self Raising Flour
Salt, Pepper and Red Chilly Flakes to taste
Oil as required for frying

Method 
Wash, peel and coarsely grate the potatoes.
Put them in a cloth to remove excess water by pressing it.
Put them in a bowl, add the parsley, onions and mix them well. Add the beaten eggs, salt, pepper and red chilly flakes to taste and finally mix in the self raising flour.
Heat the oil in a frying pan until medium hot. Form the batter into flat cakes, I used a tablespoon to make them of same size and fry them in the oil on both sides until golden brown.
Remove and place on a paper towel to remove excess oil, serve warm.

Turon - Banana Fritters with Homemade Spring Roll Wrappers


As per wiki , Turon (Philippine Spanish: turón de banana or turón plátano), also known as lumpiyang saging (Tagalog, banana lumpia), is a Filipino snack made of bananas or of jackfruit, or both rolled in a spring roll wrapper and fried. Other fillings can also be used, including sweet potato, mango, cheddar cheese and coconut.

Turón is a popular street food amongst Filipinos. These easy to do banana fritters in wrappers are a favorite of most Filipino households for a merienda snack or a dessert. These are best served warm.

Second recipe for this week BM -- under the theme --Bring on the Fritters.
Ingredients

5 Bananas - ripened, peeled, sliced in half, lengthwise
10 Spring roll wrappers - see recipe below
1 Cup Brown Sugar
Oil for frying

Method
Roll each banana slice in the brown sugar and keep aside.

Heat oil in a pan on slow flame.


On a dry surface, place the wrappers. 


Place the banana slice in the middle of the wrapper.


Brush the edges all around with water to seal.


Tuck in the edges on the left and right.

 
Roll it in a long cylinder. 

When oil is hot enough, add two of the wrapped turon. Rotate the wraps or lumpia around the pan for even cooking. Cook the turon for about 3 to 5 minutes on each side or till they turn a golden brown. Drain on paper towel or parchment paper to remove excess oil. Serve hot.

Spring Roll Wrappers

Ingredients

1 Cup Flour
1/4 Teaspoon Salt
Water for kneading 

Method 

Sift flour into a medium bowl and make a well in the center. Add cold water in well. Knead lightly until a smooth dough has formed. On a lightly floured surface, roll the dough into a big roti. Cut into squares ( bigger than the length of the banana.

My Notes:
Use brown sugar because it does not burn like granulated sugar does when cooking.

Jamaican Banana Fritters (Eggless)

July 3, 2014

Banana fritters are simple food, the best part of making these is that you can used overripe bananas which otherwise no one would like to eat. Authentic Jamaican banana fritters are dense not fluffy. Let me assure you that they taste so good. They are so easy to make that it requires just minutes to prepare the batter.


Ingredients
3/4 Cup mashed overripe Bananas (about 3 medium bananas)
2 -3 Tablespoon granulated Sugar / Brown Sugar
A pinch Nutmeg
A pinch Cinnamon
1/2 Teaspoon Vanilla extract (Optional)
A pinch of Salt
1 Cup All-purpose Flour
1-2 Tablespoon Oil ( I used Ghee)

Method
Mash bananas with sugar and spices; stir flour into banana mixture. If necessary add some milk or water to make a thick batter.



Heat 1 or 2 Tbsp cooking oil and, using a spoon, spoon batter into pan


Fry fritters until crisp and brown on both sides; you may have to add more cooking oil. When you press them if no batter oozes out they’re done.


Remove fritters from pan and place on paper towel. Eat warm. The taste of the cinnamon in these fritters makes it different and gives a awesome taste to it.


Do try them and give your comments.

Note:  You can add an egg but the texture will be like a pancake.For a healthy version you can use wheat flour.
