Directions
Weed Fritters, yup it’s food from weeds! Pick some dandelion leaves, or nettles and make fritters This is a greek recipe – called hortakeftedes Horta means wild greens and anything can be used from spinach, to beetroot tops Traditionally wild greens (weeds) are used which can have a lovely bitter taste Suit yourself , I love dandelion and was looking for more ways to prepare it This is an instant favorite! Very good tip in step one about not adding more milk as I too was tempted but the recipe works perfectly as written Thanks!, used poke salad greens picked on the bank of the Kentucky River I have a bunch in my freezer They were really awesome, and a new way to use weed! I suggest trying this with cornmeal sometime I haven’t tried it yet, but I think it would be really good Great recipe, and thanks for the history
