Kidney bean fritters – delicious, healthy, filling
These vegan fritters not only taste delicious, but are healthy and filling. Because kidney beans contain many vitamins and minerals. They are also rich in protein and fiber, which provide long-lasting satiety.
With a side dish, salad as a main meal
Since kidney bean fritters are filling, they are ideal as a main dish for lunch or dinner – served with a side dish.
You can serve them with mashed potatoes, pasta, rice, buckwheat or couscous, among others. The kidney bean patties are also delicious with a vegetable salad.
As a snack – also to take away
The kidney bean patties are delicious both hot and cold. So you can eat them on bread as a cold snack between meals. You can also take them with you on the go, for example, on a hike or to work.
Perfect for burgers
By the way, this kidney bean fritters recipe will give you a delicious vegan burger. Simply form larger burger patties from the kidney bean mixture instead of small fritters.
You can then use them to top your homemade burger. Of course, it tastes best with homemade hamburger buns.
Spices make it
For vegan fritters, spices are probably the most important thing. Because it’s them that make vegetarian patties tasty.
You should also season the kidney bean fritters well, according to your taste. I recommend that you taste the kidney bean mixture and season it if necessary before you form patties from it.
I seasoned the vegan fritters with paprika, turmeric, chili powder and black pepper. But you can use other spices of your choice for this. You can also experiment with the amount of spices.
