INGREDIENTS

• 1 1/4 cup (125 g) fresh pumpkin
• 2 eggs
• 1/3 cup feta cheese
• 2-3 fresh curly parsley
• 1 small onion (chopped)
• 9 tablespoons quinoa flour
• salt and pepper to taste
• olive oil for frying

INSTRUCTIONS

• Cut the pumpkin into small cubes or use shredded pumpkin. Add, pumpkin, onion, and parsley into a food processor, and blend until finely chopped. This part is optional. You can do all this manually but the fritters won’t have a smooth texture. 
• Transfer the mixture into a large bowl and add salt and pepper. Add one tablespoon of quinoa flour at a time, stirring constantly, until you get the desired texture. In our case, 8-9 tablespoons were enough. The mixture should not be too thick, otherwise, the fritters won’t be soft enough. 
• Use a fork to mash feta cheese, and into the mixture and stir again.
• Add olive oil into a frying pan, and heat on medium to high heat. Use a spoon to transfer the batter into the pan. *Hint* use spoon to flatten them a bit. Cook the fritters until they are golden brown, about 2-3 minutes then flip them and cook the other side for another 2 minutes. 
• When they are done, transfer them on a paper towel. Let them cool for about 5 minutes. 
• Serve and enjoy your Pumpkin Feta Fritters the way you like!

• We got 10 Pumpkin and Feta Fritters from this mixture.
