Ingredients:
Instructions:
- Finely chop the fresh dill.
- Thinly slice the scallions.
- Zest the lemons until you have 2 tbsp worth.
- Chop the smoked salmon into small pieces.
- In a large mixing bowl, whisk the eggs until they are fully blended.
- Add the milk to the beaten eggs and whisk to combine.
- Gradually add the self-raising flour to the egg mixture, whisking continuously to avoid lumps.
- Stir in the dill, scallions, and lemon zest until they are evenly distributed throughout the batter.
- Gently fold the chopped smoked salmon into the batter until it is evenly mixed.
- Heat a non-stick skillet or frying pan over medium heat. You may add a small amount of oil or non-stick spray if needed.
- Once the pan is hot, drop 2-3 tablespoons of batter per fritter into the pan, spacing them out to avoid overcrowding.
- Cook the fritters for about 2-3 minutes on each side, or until they are golden brown and cooked through.
- Transfer the cooked fritters to a plate lined with paper towels to drain any excess oil.
- Serve the fritters warm, optionally garnished with additional dill and a wedge of lemon.
- These fritters pair well with a light salad, yogurt dip, or sour cream.
Tips:
- For a richer flavor, choose wild-caught smoked salmon if available.
- Make sure to finely chop the dill and scallions to evenly distribute their flavors throughout the fritters.
- If you prefer a thicker batter, you can add a little more flour until you reach the desired consistency.
- Cook the fritters on medium heat to ensure they are cooked through without burning the exterior.
- Pair these fritters with a simple yogurt-dill sauce for an extra burst of flavor.
