Red pepper and sundried tomato fritters

Watch how to make these tasty fritters.

Step 1

Mix the flour, salt and pepper in a bowl. Add in the red peppers, sundried tomatoes, spinach and basil and combine again. Add just enough water to bind the mixture together.

Step 2

Heat the oil in a large frying pan over a medium heat.

Step 3

Once the oil is hot, add the batter to the pan in four spoonfuls. Fry for 2–3 minutes until the bottom sets and starts to crisp. Carefully turn the fritters and fry for a further 2–3 minutes.

Step 4

Transfer to a baking sheet and bake in a preheated oven at 180°C (160°C fan/gas mark 4) for 10 minutes. Once cooked through and browned, remove from the oven.
