This is a quick Thermomix breakfast accompaniment Joe has been working on – Thermomix Potato Fritters. We featured these in The Breakfast Issue of our digital mag, and then in Episode 71 of the podcast – Thermomix Breakfast Ideas.
We love having bacon and eggs on the weekend, but wanted to mix it up a little bit with our side dish.
These Thermomix Potato Fritters are quite simple, but really delicious. You can even use them to fill a lunch box or for an afternoon snack.
Potato Fritters
- Total Time: 1 hour
- Yield: 10 fritters
Description
These tasty fritters are the perfect accompaniment to your hot breakfasts. You’ll get your fill of starch and they complement eggs, sausage and fresh spinach perfectly. They have been designed to be dairy free so in lieu of cheese (common in fritters), there is more salt. If you wish to add grated Parmesan you may want to reduce the salt.
