    Very simple and nice but it needed more seasoning, next time I'll be doubling the cumin and stirring some of the coriander through the mixture.

    Mmmm... these were delicious. I doubled the cumin as suggested by Patz. I did a side salad of fennel, chicory, apple and walnut which worked well.

    These we lovely - I added 1 tsp chilli powder for an extra kick. I also don't like coriander so added mint to the yoghurt - lovely

    Very tasty and easy! I made it with a mint yoghurt instead of coriander and it was lovely. They are surprisingly filling as well.

    I made these with courgette instead of carrot. They were really delicious. Made about 6 decent sized fritters. Would also use more cumin next time and maybe a pinch of chilli powder.

    Very delicious! It takes a lot for my carnivore of a fiance to ask for a meal with no meat in it again, but he cant wait for me to make these again! An excellent, tasty and fairly cheap meal!

    I thought these were a bit tasteless - needs more feta and more cumin/spices

    Loved these. Didn't have a grater and so had to cut the carrots into sticks. Worked beautifully, although took quite a long time as you have to cook them in batches. Even better cold the next day.

    This was great. I did double up on the cumin and added a pinch of chilli, next time a pinch more chilli as well! I used 3 medium sized carrots but then didnt have much batter so had to make more. The end result was lovely though and they really are quite filling. Will make again.
