Ingredients

Salad

  • 1 tsp red wine vinegar
  • 1 drizzle of olive oil
  • 30g feta cheese, crumbled
  • 1/2 pack baby spinach
  • 1 carrot, peeled into ribbons
  • 1 baby bok choy, thinly sliced

Fritters

  • 1 drizzle of oil
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 3/4 cup plain flour
  • 1/4 cup milk
  • 2 egg
  • 1 drizzle of oil
  • 1/2 pack baby spinach, chopped
  • 1 tsp honey
  • 1/2 red onion, finely diced
  • 200g shoulder bacon, diced 1cm
  • 200g kumara, diced 1cm

To Serve

  • 1 Tbsp sweet chilli sauce
  • 2 Tbsp sour cream

Steps

  1. Preheat oven to 220°C (or 200°C fan bake).
  2. Prep kumara, bacon and onion. Toss all on a lined oven tray with honey and oil and season with salt and pepper. Roast for about 15 minutes, until kumara is tender and bacon is cooked. Reduce oven temperature to 150°C (to keep fritters warm later) and reserve tray.
  3. Prep first measure of spinach. Add eggs, milk, flour and salt to a medium bowl and whisk, until smooth. When kumara, bacon and onion are cooked, add all to fritter mix with first measure of spinach and mix to combine.
  4. Heat oil in a large (preferably non-stick) fry-pan on medium heat. Use a 1/4 cup measure to scoop out mix into the pan. Cook fritters, in batches, for about 2 minutes each side, until golden and cooked through. Transfer cooked fritters to the reserved tray and keep warm in the oven while the other batches cook.
  5. While fritters cook, prep bok choy and carrot, then toss with remaining spinach, feta, oil and vinegar in a medium bowl. Season to taste with salt and pepper.
  6. Fritters topped with sour cream, sweet chilli sauce and salad on the side.
