White Bean & Onion Fritters


I'm going to whip some of these up this evening. The process reminds me of 'fish cakes' my mother has made for years. We'll see how these stack up!

Here's the recipe...try some for yourself:

White Bean & Onion Fritters

  • 1 cup cannellini beans {either canned, or soaked and boiled}
  • 3 T olive oil
  • 1 small onion, finely chopped
  • Salt & Pepper to taste
  • 3/4 cup flour
Place beans in a food processor and whirl until you have a puree. Place puree in a bowl

Heat oil and add onions. Sautee 5 minutes or until soft. Remove and add to puree.

Season with S & P. Add 2 T flour to mixture, stir until smooth.

In same skillet, add enough oil to cover bottom of pan.

Mold puree into gold ball size balls. Roll in flour, and then squish into a patty.

Slide into pan, and cook 5 minutes each side. When finished place on a paper towel to absorb excess oil.

Consume when hot!
