Ingredient Benefits

For the fritters:

Carrots
Carrots are rich in beta-carotene (a precursor to vitamin A), which supports healthy vision and immune function. They’re also high in fiber and antioxidants, helping to reduce inflammation and promote digestion.

Garlic
A natural flavor booster with powerful health benefits, garlic contains allicin, which may support heart health and boost the immune system.

Red Onion
Red onions add sweetness and crunch while bringing in antioxidants like quercetin, known for their anti-inflammatory properties and potential heart health support.

Sweetcorn
Corn adds sweetness, texture, and a pop of color. It’s a good source of fiber, B vitamins, and essential minerals like magnesium and potassium.

Paprika
Smoky and slightly sweet, paprika gives the fritters warmth and depth. It’s also rich in antioxidants, including vitamin A and capsaicin compounds.

Ground Cumin
Cumin brings an earthy, nutty flavor and supports digestion. It also has antimicrobial and anti-inflammatory properties.

Chickpea Flour
Naturally gluten-free and protein-rich, chickpea flour helps bind the fritters together while adding a nutty taste and a boost of plant-based protein and fiber.

For the mint yogurt dip:

Fresh Mint
Cooling and aromatic, mint helps with digestion and brings a refreshing contrast to the warm spices in the fritters.

Plant-Based Yogurt
A creamy, dairy-free base for the dip — it's often fortified with probiotics and calcium, making it gut-friendly and good for bone health.

Lime Juice
Bright and tangy, lime juice lifts the flavors of the dip and adds a hit of vitamin C, which supports immunity and skin health.

These fritters are perfect on their own or paired with a side salad, tucked into wraps, or served as part of a mezze platter.
