Ingredients

1 tablespoon plus 1 teaspoon coconut flour

1 tablespoon plus 1 teaspoon arrowroot or tapioca flour

1/4 teaspoon of sea salt

1 pinch of fresh cracked black pepper

1 egg

1 1/2 teaspoons of cold pressed coconut oil, melted

3 tablespoons of water

50 grams of diced corned silverside or other cold meat

1 small long green shallot/scallion

1 tablespoon of cold pressed coconut oil for frying

Tzatziki Sauce

1/4 small cucumber, seeds removed and diced

1/8 red onion (12g) diced

6 capers, chopped (optional)

1 sprig of fresh dill or 1/4 teaspoon, dried

1 tablespoon of unsweetened coconut yoghurt

1/2 teaspoon of fresh lemon juice

sea salt & cracked pepper to taste

Method

Blend flours, salt and pepper together in a small bowl. In a separate bowl whisk egg, melted oil and water.

Blend flour and egg mixtures together until you have a smooth batter. Stir through meat and spring onions. Let sit for 2 minutes to let the coconut flour absorb some moisture.

Meanwhile mix all tzatziki ingredients in a small bowl and set aside.

Heat a pan to medium high and add just enough coconut oil to cover the base.

Place mixture in oil in 3 separate piles, shaping into fritters. Cook for approx. 5 minutes then carefully turn over and fry until golden brown.

Remove from the pan and drain on paper towel. Season with salt and serve with Tzatziki Sauce.
