1. Prepare the cabbage
Finely shred the cabbage using a knife or grater.
Place it in a large bowl and lightly squeeze it with your hands to soften it slightly.
2. Mix the ingredients
Add to the bowl:
- eggs
- chopped onion
- minced garlic
- flour
- salt
- black pepper
- paprika
- parsley
Mix everything together until the cabbage is well coated and a thick batter forms.
3. Heat the pan
Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
4. Form the fritters
Scoop about 2 tablespoons of the mixture and place it in the hot pan.
Flatten slightly with a spoon to form small patties.
5. Fry until crispy
Cook each fritter for 3–4 minutes per side until golden brown and crispy.
6. Drain the fritters
Remove the fritters and place them on paper towels to absorb excess oil.
7. Serve
Serve warm with:
- sour cream
- garlic yogurt sauce
- spicy mayo
- or a fresh cucumber salad
✨ Tips for Perfect Cabbage Fritters
