Beetroot Banana Fritters came about inspired by a compatriot vegan chef, Raw Chef Yin, who kindly gave me a copy of her book. We were both speakers at the international Bali Vegan Festival 2018. Here I use beetroots and sunflower seeds to add depth.  Dehydration ensures that the beetroot naturally caramelises with the banana in the dehydrator.  What I love about this dish is biting into the fritters and getting a moist beetroot/banana layer full of goodness.

What to do next

Tag me on @ethiveganquantum on Instagram to show me what you’ve made and let me know you’re happy for me to share.

My recipes are featured in vegan speciality publications: Nourished, Vegan Life, Plant Based and Vegan, Food and Living.

Order my first self-published book, “Essence: The Beginner’s Guide to Veganism” part of the three-part Circle of Food series. My second book “Presence: The Ascending Vegan” – which explores how to maintain a vegan practice is out in 2027 – I have compiled all the chapters including recipes.

Going strong since 2013.

Love.
