Santorini Style Tomato Fritters: Domatokeftedes

Serves 6:
1 and pounds tomatoes, diced
1 small onion, finely chopped
3-5 scallions (green and white parts), finely sliced
cup finely chopped fresh herbs
cup parsley
cup basil or dill
2 tablespoons finely chopped fresh mint
2 teaspoons dried crushed oregano
Salt and freshly ground pepper, to taste
1 and cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon baking powder
Optional: pound feta cheese, crumbled
Vegetable oil, for frying
tzatziki sauce for dipping

In a large mixing bowl, combine the diced tomatoes, onions, scallions, and herbs. Season lightly with salt and pepper.

In a small bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, salt, and pepper and whisk to combine.
Add the flour to the tomato mixture and mix well with a spatula until everything is combined.
Mix in the crumbled feta is using.
Taste and add more salt and pepper if desired.
This mixture can sit in the refrigerator for a few hours so that all of the flavors marry. It can also be made immediately. I prefer to allow it to sit at least 1 hour for best flavor.

Heat the oil in a frying pan over medium high heat.
Carefully drop 1 tablespoon of batter at a time in the oil and fry at least 3 minutes before flipping to prevent the fritter from falling apart.
Cook until golden brown all around. 6-7 minutes.

Set the fritters on a plate lined with paper towels to absorb the excess oil.
Serve immediately with tzatziki sauce for dipping.
Enjoy!
