Hamburger Casserole

Carrot & Sesame Fritters

Fried but very good and easy

Ingredients
2 tablespoons sesame seeds
2 cups shredded carrots (about 3 medium)
1/2 cup finely chopped green onion
1 tablespoon ginger
1 garlic clove, crushed through a press
1/4 cup cracker meal
3 leggs, lightly beaten
1 teaspoon salt
Vegetable oil
Thai Dipping Sauce

Instructions
Toast the sesame seeds in a dry skillet over low heat, stirring, until golden, about 2 minutes.

Combine the carrots, scallions, ginger and garlic in a large bowl; stir to blend. Add the cracker meal, eggs, sesame seeds and salt; stir to blend.

Heat 1/2 inch oil in a medium skillet until hot enough to sizzle a crust of bread. Add the batter by rounded tablespoons and fry, turning once, until browned on both sides. Repeat with the remaining batter.

Serve warm with Thai Dipping Sauce.

Yield: about 20 bite-size pancakes
