Ingredients

  • cup wholemeal self-raising flour
  • 1 tablespoon Cajun spice mix
  • 5 eggs, lightly beaten
  • ½ cup grated tasty cheese
  • 420 g can no added salt four bean mix, drained
  • 1 large carrot, grated

Method

Step 1

Place flour in a large bowl. Add spice mix and eggs. Stir to make a thick batter. Add cheese, beans, carrot, zucchini and shallots. Season with pepper. Stir until well combined.

Heat a lightly oiled, large non-stick frying pan over a medium heat. Add a generous ¼ cup of the mixture, spreading to make an 8 cm fritter. Repeat to make 3 more. Cook about 3 minutes on each side, or until golden brown. Transfer to a tray. Cover with foil to keep warm. Continue with remaining mixture to make 16 fritters in total, lightly re-oiling pan between each batch.
