How to Make Broccoli Fritters

  1. Steam 1 large head of broccoli florets until crisp-tender (about 5-7 minutes).
  2. Roughly chop 1 medium onion and 2 cloves garlic. Combine the steamed broccoli, onion, and garlic in a food processor and pulse until finely chopped, or chop by hand.
  3. Transfer the mixture to a large bowl. Add 1 cup all-purpose flour, 1 teaspoon salt, 1/2 cup milk, and 1 tablespoon olive oil.
  4. Whisk in 1 large egg and 2 tablespoons sweet chili sauce. Mix until thoroughly combined.
  5. Heat a lightly oiled non-stick frying pan over medium heat. Drop spoonfuls of the broccoli mixture into the pan, flattening slightly. Cook for 2-3 minutes per side, or until golden brown and crispy.
  6. Serve immediately with your favorite dipping sauce, alongside a fresh salad, and crusty bread (optional).
