Broccoli Fritters

In terms of nutritional qualities, vegetable fritters are not inferior to meat products. At the same time, they are much cheaper and less caloric, but no less tasty and useful. Broccoli fritters are a wonderful way to diversify the side dishes, replacing boiled broccoli with appetizing fritters. If desired, the fritters can not be fried in a frying pan, but baked in the oven. So the products will be more useful and even less caloric. Wheat flour in the recipe can be replaced with rice flour, breadcrumbs or oat cereal. Preparing fritters is fast and easy. Frozen vegetables can be used in the non-season. As a rule, before freezing, broccoli is blanched, so before cooking, it is enough to simply pour with boiling water.
