Cassava Fritters

6 ingredients
8 steps

Ingredients

  • 1 lb cassava, frozen
  • 3 eggs
  • 4 ounces aged cheddar cheese, grated
  • 1/2 teaspoon seasoning salt
  • 1 -2 garlic clove, crushed
  • 4 -6 teaspoons butter

Directions

  1. 1
    Boil cassava in salted water until tender, about 20 minutes.
  2. 2
    Drain cassava and cover in cool water for 5 minutes.
  3. 3
    Drain cassava again and put into a medium-sized mixing bowl. Mash well. **Do not use a food processor as this turns it too gooey**.
  4. 4
    Mix in the 3 eggs, seasoning salt and garlic. Stir well.
  5. 5
    Heat a large frying pan on medium-high heat. Melt 1-2 teaspoons of the butter.
  6. 6
    A soup ladle works perfectly for the amount of mixture you will need per fritter. Spoon one ladleful and spread out until a little bit bigger than the palm of your hand. Repeat the process until the frying pan is full. (My frying pan holds 4).
  7. 7
    Fry on one side for 5-6 minutes, checking to make sure you don't burn the bottom. Once nicely browned and holding together, flip over and cook another 5-6 minutes on the other side.
  8. 8
    Serve.
