Curry Vegie Fritters (GF, TMX)

I'm not going to post the method, as this is more a record of ingredients for me :) This recipe is in the new "A Taste of Vegetarian" cookbook from Thermomix. it is vegan and a perfect recipe to use up leftover veg in your fridge ;) here is the gluten free version i made tonight which was YUM!!!! 5/5!

it's a funny recipe though - you swear there's no way it's enough batter for that amount of veg but it's perfect!

600g roughly chopped veg - i used 1 onion, 1 small yellow capsicum (though something red would have been great ;)) half a small cauliflower, some beans and 3 small potatoes, plus half a bunch of finely chopped coriander
3 corn cobs, kernels removed
2 cloves garlic
110g gluten free plain flour (i used white wings)
80g besan / chickpea flour
1 tspn garam masala (made in tmx ;))
1 tspn curry powder
210g water
oil for frying

** see the recipe book for the method!

as i didn't have any avocado to make the salsa the book suggests and dh doesn't like it, i just mixed natural yoghurt and sweet chilli sauce, though i'd thought a spiced yoghurt (with cumin, coriander, S&P and fresh mint) would have been great, but couldn't be bothered to do it lol

i think that these made in teaspoonfuls rather than large spoonfuls would make fantastic finger food for a cocktail party

OPERATION BUTTERMILK

this afternoon's assignment (much as i'd prefer to be sleeping - child-free) is to use up the carton of buttermilk i bought which is out of date tomorrow. i bought it planning to make pancakes (but never got around to it) and a marinade for chicken (but we have no meat left).

anyway, this is what i'm going to try:
black devil's food cake
spiced prune buttermilk loaf

i've also got to cook the cabbage to go with the beef casserole for dinner tonight (i love my cabbage slow cooked with a little butter, until it's soft and sweet - YUM!)

will report back on the recipes some time later...

REPORT
well the devil's food cake is ok. the kids seem to like it, not really my style (i prefer 'real chocolate' cakes like my mudcake). i must remember it's eggfree though for those days when i have no eggs in the house!

the prune loaf has only just gone in the oven but the batter is delicious and being fought over as i type! lol
ETA - the prune loaf is DIVINE! definitely one i will make again more than once. so delicious and you'd never know they were prunes.
