Preparation
Step 1
DIRECTIONS: Measure the pumpkin into a medium mixing bowl. Beat the eggs into the pumpkin. Add the sweetener and stir. Measure all dry ingredients on top of the wet ingredients and stir with a rubber spatula. Fold the batter on top of itself several times to mix the ingredients and let the glucomannan powder “set up” the batter a bit thicker. Heat your choice of frying oil in a deep skillet or wok over medium high heat. Drop the batter/dough by tablespoons into hot oil. I had enough batter to make 16 and only fried 8 at a time to avoid overcrowding and oil cooling off too much. Fry the fritters for about 1 minute on a side. When both sides are golden grown, remove them with a slotted spoon to paper toweling to drain. Serve alongside any Indian foods or they are delicious just by themselves!
