Fried dill patties – Authentic Tunisian recipe

Fried dill has a very unique flavor. It is not similar to fresh dill and pretty distinct after you taste it several times. If you like it, it can become VERY addictive taste that you will long for.

I’ve learned this recipe from the Aunt of my grandmother, so this recipe is about 100 years old (at least).

Ingredients:
1 large onion diced fried until slightly brown.
4 cups of fresh dill – chopped
1 cup of fresh cilantro leaves – chopped
2 TBS sesame seeds
4 TBS chickpea flour
4 TBS whole wheat flour
1 tsp salt
1 clove of garlic – grated

Directions:

mix all the ingredients – make the patties with wet hands! Press hard on these patties to remove access liquids and to form a smooth as possible shape. Fry in about 1 cm Oil from both sides.

Serve with lemon wedges, tahini sauce and garnish with cilantro leaves. or in a sandwich with fresh tomato and lettuce.

You will thank me for this recipe. It is super delicious with a distinct fried dill flavor that you can’t miss. If you like it, you will make it over and over again.

Enjoy,

Guy

    My husband sent me this so I dared him to make it himself. He did. It was great. We had them on a homemade sourdough bread with vegan mayo, thinly sliced onions and tomatoes.

    Thanks.
