Peter Rabbit's Favourite Carrot and Caraway Fritters
JenJen from Milk and Cookies is this month's host for Hay Hay it's Donna Day which is round number 6!



The theme - Fritters!



I first made these Carrot and Caraway Seed Fritters for my little Samantha's 1st birthday a couple of years ago, it was a Peter Rabbit, Beatrix Potter themed picnic. They were a big hit and have now become a firm favourite for lazy Sunday afternoons.



  • Peter Rabbit's Favourite Carrot and Caraway Fritters
  •  
  • 2 eggs
  • 1 teaspoon of wholegrain mustard
  • ½ teaspoon of caraway seeds
  • pinch of salt
  • freshly ground black pepper
  • 1 cup of grated carrot
  • ½ cup of grated aged cheddar cheese
  • ½ cup of flour
  • ¼ cup of milk
  • 1½ teaspoons of baking powder
  • olive oil
  • 100 grams of softened cream cheese
  • grated zest of 1 lemon
  • salt and pepper
  • 1 tablespoon of chopped fresh chives
  • small sprigs of flat leaf parsley, chervil or other fresh herbs


  1. Whisk together the eggs, mustard, caraway seeds, salt and pepper.
  2. Add the grated carrot, cheese and mix until well combined.
  3. Sift in the flour and baking power and fold together with the milk.
  4. Heat a frypan and pour in a little oil, place small teaspoonfuls of mixture into the hot pan and fry for 2 minutes each side or until golden.
  5. Place onto a plate with absorbent paper to drain.
  6. Mix cream cheese and lemon zest, salt, pepper and chopped chives together.
  7. Sandwich two fritters together with the cream cheese mixture and a few sprigs of the fresh herbs.
  8. Makes 20 sandwiched or 40 fritters


Enjoy!
