Parmesan Cabbage Fritters with Garlic Dip
Crispy on the outside, tender on the inside, these cheesy cabbage fritters are the ultimate underdog snack. Paired with a creamy, tangy garlic dip, they're addictively delicious and surprisingly easy to make.
Ingredients
- 1 small head of cabbage, finely shredded about 4 cups
- ½ cup grated parmesan cheese use freshly grated, not pre-packaged
- 2 eggs, beaten
- ½ cup all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon garlic powder
- ½ teaspoon salt for fritters
- ¼ teaspoon black pepper
- 2 tablespoons olive oil for frying
- ½ cup Greek yogurt or sour cream for dip
- 1 clove garlic, minced for dip
- 1 tablespoon lemon juice for dip
- ½ teaspoon salt for dip
- 1 tablespoon chopped fresh dill optional, for dip
Instructions
- Finely shred the cabbage and toss with salt. Let sit for 10 minutes, then squeeze out as much liquid as possible.
- In a large bowl, combine shredded cabbage, parmesan, eggs, flour, garlic powder, salt, and black pepper. Mix until well combined.
- Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Drop spoonfuls of batter into the pan and flatten slightly.
- Cook fritters for 3–4 minutes per side, or until golden brown and crispy. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate.
- In a small bowl, mix Greek yogurt, minced garlic, lemon juice, salt, and chopped dill. Taste and adjust seasoning as needed.
- Serve the warm fritters immediately with the garlic dip on the side.
Notes
To keep fritters crispy, reheat leftovers in a toaster oven or air fryer. Avoid microwaving. Swap flour for almond flour to make them gluten-free. Try zucchini or carrots instead of cabbage for variation. The dip keeps in the fridge for up to 5 days.
