Tomato Fritters
Report
Tomato Fritters are crispy, tomato-packed fritters bursting with Roma tomatoes, cheddar cheese, and a hint of heat from a jalapeno pepper. Then, they are dipped in a creamy and tangy dipping sauce. (This sauce is AMAZING with these fritters!) They make a fantastic appetizer, snack, or side dish, and their vibrant appearance and delightful taste are sure to please!

Instructions
Dipping Sauce
- In a food processor (or with an immersion blender) mix the mayonnaise and chopped tomato together until smooth and creamy. Store in the refrigerator until ready to use.
Tomato Fritters
- To a large bowl, add tomatoes, flour, baking powder, salt, pepper, garlic, milk, eggs, green onions, jalapeno peppers, red onion, and cheese. Mix until well combined.
- To a large skillet over medium heat, add about ½ inch of oil.
- Once hot, use a 3-tablespoon scoop to add fritter batter to the pan in batches of 3 or 4, being careful not to overcrowd the pan.
- Flatten the tops of each fritter with a spatula, forming them into approximately 3-inch wide patties.
- Fry the fritters for 3-4 minutes on each side or until they turn golden brown and crispy.
- Carefully transfer the cooked fritters to a plate lined with paper towels to drain any excess oil. Salt to taste.
- Repeat the frying process with the remaining batter.
- Serve immediately with dipping sauce.
