Veggie Fritters

Vegetable fritters - super tasty and crunchy - sort of like hash browns -

You'll need:

1 potato peeled
1 sweet potato peeled
1 zucchini
1 leek, white part only
1  T of flour
1 egg lightly beaten
Oil for frying
S&P for seasoning

Finely grate the potato, sweet potato, zucchini and squeeze out the excess water, place in a medium bowl.  Finely shred/slice the leek and add to the bowl.  Toss in the flour and combine.  Add in the beaten egg and combine.

Meanwhile, heat oil in a frying pan, about 1/4 inch deep.

Place about 3 T of veggie mixture into hot oil, only 3-4 fritters at a time.  Fry 3 minutes, then flip and fry 3 minutes on other side til golden brown.  Drain on paper towels, salt and pepper.

Serve with tomato sauce:

In olive oil, cook 1 small diced onion and 1 clove crushed garlic about 3 minutes, then add in 3 chopped tomatoes and cook about 10 minutes on low, then toss in 1/4 cup shredded basil. Serve warm with the fritters.
