Vegetable "Pakoras" with an Avocado Mint Dipping Sauce

My take on vegetable pakoras served with an avocado mint dipping sauce make for an easy and delicious appetizer.

Ingredients (vegetable pakoras):

  • 1 large sweet potato

  • 1 large russet potato

  • 2 large carrots

  • 1 small red onion

  • 2 cloves of garlic

  • 1 teaspoon salt

  • 1 teaspoon black pepper

  • 1 teaspoon ground nutmeg

  • 2 large organic eggs

  • 1/4 cup all-purpose flour

Directions (vegetable pakoras):

  • Using a vegetable grater, grate 1 large sweet potato, 1 Russet potato and 2 carrots into a large bowl.

  • Using a food processor (or kitchen wand), process the red onion and 2 cloves of garlic until thoroughly diced.

  • Add the onion/garlic mixture to your vegetable bowl.

  • Add 2 organic eggs, 1/4 cup of flour, 1 teaspoon of salt, 1 teaspoon of black pepper, and 1 teaspoon of ground nutmeg. Mix well.

  • Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a frying pan until hot.

  • Using your hands, form flat patties (approximately 1.5 inch diameter).

  • Fry on both sides for approximately 5 minutes each.


Ingredients (avocado mint dipping sauce):

  • 3 sprigs of fresh mint leaves

  • 1 teabag of Morrocan mint tea (opened up)

  • half an avocado

  • juice from half a lemon

  • 1/2 tea spoon salt

... add all ingredients to a blender and blend until a smooth dipping sauce forms.
