Ingredients
- 4 egg large
- ½ cup almond flour blanched, finely ground
- ¼ cup parmesan grated
- 1 tablespoon garlic minced, fresh
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt or ½ teaspoon of any other salt, Diamond Crystal brand
- ¼ teaspoon black pepper
- ¼ cup scallions white and green parts, chopped
- 8 ounces kale leaves
- ¼ cup olive oil extra-virgin, for frying
Instructions
- Preheat your oven to 200°F. Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper for easy cleanup.
- Place the eggs, almond flour, parmesan, garlic, kosher salt, black pepper, and scallions in your food processor’s bowl. Briefly process to combine.
- Add the kale gradually, about a quarter at a time, and process to combine. Use a rubber spatula to scrape the sides and bottom of the food processor bowl as needed.
- Heat half the olive oil in a large (12-inch) nonstick skillet over medium heat. Using a 4-tablespoon scoop, drop mounds of the kale mixture into the oil. Gently flatten them. Fry the fritters until golden brown, about 4 minutes per side.
- Keep the cooked fritters on the prepared baking sheet in the warm oven while you add more oil to the pan and fry another batch. Serve the fritters immediately.
Notes
- I often buy pre-washed, bagged kale leaves. It makes life easier - easy is good - and it ensures that the leaves are dry when added to the mixture.
- You can keep the leftovers in the fridge, in a sealed container, for about 4 days. Reheat them in the microwave, covered, at 50% power. They are also delicious cold, straight out of the fridge, which is actually my preferred way of enjoying them.
