Cheddar And Black Bean Fritters Recipes

Steps:

• Sift together the cornmeal, flour, baking powder, salt, chili powder, cumin, and cayenne in a medium-sized bowl.
• Beat the milk with the egg yolk, and add it to the dry ingredients, mixing well.
• Stir in the beans, cheese, corn, cilantro, red pepper, and green chilies.
• In another bowl, beat the egg whites with an electric mixer until stiff. Gently fold them into the batter.
• Heat 1/2 cup oil in a 10-inch iron skillet over medium-high heat. (Test the heat by dropping a bit of batter into the oil; it should immediately sizzle and rise to the top.).
• Spoon in about 1/4 cup of batter for each fritter, making three or four at a time. Fry until golden brown on one side, 3 to 5 minutes. Turn and fry until golden brown on the other side, and drain on paper towels. Fry the rest of the batter in batches.
• Serve immediately with sour cream and salsa on the side.

Steps:

• Preheat broiler. In a large bowl, whisk the first 6 ingredients until blended., In a 10-in. ovenproof skillet, heat oil over medium-high heat. Add peppers and green onions; cook and stir 3-4 minutes or until peppers are tender. Add garlic; cook 1 minute longer. Stir in beans. Reduce heat to medium; stir in egg mixture. Cook, uncovered, 4-6 minutes or until nearly set. Sprinkle with cheese., Broil 3-4 in. from heat 3-4 minutes or until light golden brown and eggs are completely set. Let stand 5 minutes. Cut into wedges. Serve with toppings as desired.

Steps:

• Rinse and drain beans.
• In a separate bowl, mix all dry ingredients. Stir in egg white, and add milk slowly until a sticky, spreadable paste forms. NOT runny, but not a solid blob.
• Add beans, and mix well. I do not mash ALL of the beans. The texture of a few whole beans is nice. However, I do stir the mixture vigorously to break up and mash about 1/3 of the beans.
• Add cheese and stir. If the mixture seems too dry, add milk.
• Form into patties of the desired size, and pan fry for a couple of minutes on each side.
• Serve with sour cream, cheese, salsa, guacamole, etc.
• Yummy!

Steps:

• In a bowl whisk together well the cornmeal, the flour,the baking powder, the cayenne, the salt, and the cumin, whisk in the milk and the yolk, and stir in the Cheddar and the beans. In another bowl beat the whites until they hold soft peaks and fold them into the Cheddar mixture thoroughly. Heat 1/8 inch of the oil in a well-seasoned cast-iron or non-stick skillet over moderately high heat until it is hot but not smoking. Working in batches, drop heaping tablespoons of the batter into the skillet, spreading them slightly, fry the fritters for 1 minute on each side, or until they are golden brown, and let them drain on paper towels. Serve the fritters with the sour cream and the tomato salsa.

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6 and line a large baking tray with baking parchment.
• Heat the oil in a small pan and fry the onion and pepper for 5 mins until softened. Meanwhile, mix the flour, spices and baking powder in a bowl. Add the onions, pepper, corn and 2 of the eggs, then mix together well.
• Spoon eight mounds of the mixture onto the baking tray, well spaced apart, then flatten slightly with the back of the spoon. Bake for 20 mins until set and golden.
• Meanwhile, mix together the salsa ingredients and poach 2 of the remaining eggs to your liking. If you're following our Healthy Diet Plan, serve four fritters on the day you make them, topped with half the salsa and the poached eggs. Chill the remaining fritters for another day. Reheat them in a pan or microwave and serve with 2 more poached eggs and the remaining salsa.

Steps:

• Heat the oven to 475 degrees. In a 10-inch ovenproof skillet, heat the olive oil over medium-high. Fry the garlic until lightly golden, about 1 minute. Stir in the tomato paste, paprika, red-pepper flakes and cumin (be careful of splattering), and fry for 30 seconds, reducing the heat as needed to prevent the garlic from burning.
• Add the beans, water and generous pinches of salt and pepper, and stir to combine. Sprinkle the cheese evenly over the top then bake until the cheese has melted, 5 to 10 minutes. If the top is not as browned as you'd like, run the skillet under the broiler for 1 or 2 minutes. Serve immediately.
