ingredients: |
1 1/4 c Peeled, chopped plum tomato
-(See Note)
1/2 c Finely chopped scallions
1 Garlic clove; finely chopped
1 tb Freshly chopped parsley

1 ts Fresh mint (heaping measure)

directions: |
|
In a large bowl, combine tomatoes, scallions, garlic, herbs, and spices.
Add flour and baking powder and mix together so that all ingredients are
well blended and have the consistency of a thick batter (about as thick as
pancake batter).
In a large heavy skillet, heat enough olive oil for frying. Taking a
heaping tablespoon at a time, drop batter into hot oil and fry until
golden brown and crisp.
Remove at once with a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels. Serve hot.
Yield: about 3 dozen
NOTE: In other islands, spinach or 'horta' (greens) are often used instead
of tomatoes. Follow instructions above, using 1-1/2 cups boiled,
well-drained, chopped spinach, or any other greens.
