Confetti Carrot Fritters

"Ran across this recipe in a magazine from 2001. As I love all things fritters, I cut it out and would like to save it here, as it sounds wonderful! All I know is that it is a recipe from Peggy Camp, Twain, CA. Thnx, Peggy! Prep and cooking times are approximate."

  1. Really yummy and interesting fritters! I don't normally like carrots as much as I like other veggies, but these made me really enjoy carrots. I didn't make the mustard sauce, but the fritters were great! I used 2 T dried shallots because I was too lazy to go out and buy onions, and turned out just divine; the egg moistened them.
     
  2. That's funny.. I got the same recipe from the same magazine and was gonna post it untilI saw you had.. My kids plead for this! I guess great minds really do think alike

As you can see, I've been on "Zaar quite a while now, and have reviewed quite a few recipes. Just like everyone else who's been around for a while, my rating system has undergone a change. *****Rocked my socks off. Won't change a thing! ****A good solid recipe. Enjoyed it. Might need a small change for personal preferences. ***Needs some help. Might be an operator error, but can't make it work. As all the recipes I choose are chosen because of the ingredients that we like, I will not give less than ***. And, please, keep in mind that this is only my personal opinion. Someone else might think it is wonderful and give *****. So keep posting! BTW, if I forget to thank you for taking the time to prepare one of my recipes, it is unintentional! My biggest passion is my reading. I can't go to bed at night until I have read something, even if its the back of a bag of potato chips! But that ain't gonna happen. I have over 300 books in my bedroom book shelves, and we have even more in the rest of the house! <embed src="http://www.clocklink.com/clocks/5025-white.swf?TimeZone=MST&" width="180" height="180" wmode="transparent" type="application/x-shockwave-flash"> ACTIVITIES & SUCH: <img src="http://i146.photobucket.com/albums/r271/copperhorse58/Herb1BaySTKR.jpg"> <img src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v726/annacia/Permanent%20Banners/snow-queens-sm.jpg" border="0" alt="Photobucket"></a>What a round!
