Butternut Squash Fritters
Ingredients
- 1 (1.3-1.8kg) butternut squash, peeled and seeded, grated to about 6 cups
- 1 medium onion, grated
- 3 large eggs
- 1 tbsp. dried thyme
- 1 tsp. dried oregano
- ½ tsp. smoked paprika
- 1 tsp. kosher salt
- ¾ cup (gluten-free) all-purpose flour
- Cooking oil with a high smoke point, like rice bran, canola or grapeseed
- Salt & pepper, to taste
- ¼ cup (lactose-free) sour cream
- 2 scallions, greens finely chopped
- 1 lemon – 1 tsp. zest, then cut into wedges
- 5 oz./150 g smoked salmon or trout
- 1 tbsp. capers
- pickled red onions (optional)
Directions
- On your grill, replace a grid with a Broil King griddle. Preheat grill to medium heat.
- In a mixing bowl, combine ingredients from butternut squash to flour to form a consistent batter.
- Stir together sour cream, scallions and lemon zest. Set aside.
- Brush oil onto the hot griddle. Spoon ¼ cup of batter onto the griddle at a time and flatten to form 6 fritters.
- Fry butternut squash fritters for about 3-4 minutes per side, until crisp-tender. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
- Transfer cooked fritters onto the cooling rack to keep warm and repeat with the remaining batter.
- Serve with scallion sour cream, smoked salmon and capers.
