Fava Bean Fritters

Home   Recipes for Pulses, Grains, Seeds, Flakes, Flour, Ferments...   Fava Bean Fritters
Fava Fava Beans Fava Flour Pulse Flour Pulses Quick & Easy

by Orfhlaith Noone February 25, 2025

Infused with warming garam masala, a hint of pepper and cayenne, and vibrant vegetables, Órfhlaith Noone's fritters make a satisfying meal at any time of day. They're packed with fibre and plant-based protein - thanks to the fava bean flour, which delivers an impressive 26g of protein per 100g.

The fritters are delicious served with something fresh and something creamy, like a leafy green salad and some garlic yoghurt, hummus or cottage cheese. Any leftover fritters can be freshened up by toasting for a few minutes - making them a great option to pack in a lunchbox for work.

The vegetables in this recipe are suggestions rather than a strict list to follow - any veg will work well so they're a great way to use up leftovers.

This is our first recipe from the brilliant Órfhlaith Noone, a chef, recipe developer, and food stylist from Dublin, based in Sevenoaks, Kent. (And for anyone wondering—that’s the Irish spelling of Orla.) 

After training at Ireland’s Ballymaloe Cookery School, Órfhlaith worked as a sourdough baker, events caterer, short-order cook, head chef, and private chef, cooking everywhere from the South of France to the Scottish Highlands. She also spent time as a stageur (chef’s apprentice) in Lima, Peru, before pivoting into the world of recipe development. Her favourite ingredient is chickpeas and the highlight of her career to date has been cooking for Rick Astley on their joint birthday. 

Órfhlaith’s style of food is eclectic, fun and decidedly un-fussy. Follow her on @orfhlaithnoone and her website orfhlaithnoone.com

Makes 8 fritters

Ingredients

  • 150g Fava Bean Flour
  • 1 tsp Baking Powder
  • 2 tsp Garam Masala
  • ½ tsp Cayenne Pepper (optional)
  • ½ tsp Fine Salt
  • ½ tsp Freshly Ground Black Pepper
  • 2 tbsp Toasted Sesame Seeds, plus more for serving
  • 1 Egg
  • 175 to 200ml Water
  • 1 Small Carrot, grated
  • 50g Peas, defrosted
  • 50g Sweet Corn
  • Small Bunch of spring Onion, finely sliced
  • 20g Coriander, finely chopped
  • Olive Oil, for frying

Method

  1. In a large mixing bowl, whisk together the fava bean flour, baking powder, garam masala, cayenne (if using), salt, black pepper, and sesame seeds.
  2. Crack in the egg and gradually pour in the water, whisking until you have a smooth, thick batter. Start with 175ml and add more if needed to reach a spoonable consistency.
  3. Stir in the grated carrot, peas, corn, spring onions, and coriander until well combined. (Reserve some spring onions and coriander for garnish, if liked).
  4. Heat a frying pan over medium-high heat and coat with a little olive oil.
  5. Scoop about 3 tablespoons of batter per fritter into the pan, gently spreading it out to form even rounds.
  6. Cook for 3-4 minutes, until bubbles are forming and bursting across the surface of each fritter.
  7. Flip and cook for a further 2-3 minutes on the other side, until golden brown and cooked through.
  8. Garnish with reserved spring onions, coriander, and extra sesame seeds.

These wholesome oatcakes with festive redcurrant relish make a wonderfully simple yet elegant addition to any Christmas table.
