These high-fibre, low-calorie fritters are great for a light dinner and any leftovers can go in the lunchbox the next day.
1 Cut broccoli (stem and florets) into large chunks and place in a food processor. Pulse until it resembles green rice.
2 In a large bowl, combine broccoli rice, hummus, eggs, bread crumbs, salt, pepper and garlic.
3 Shape mixture into 20 golf ball-sized balls then flatten with the palm of your hand to a thickness of about 3cm.
4 Spray a large non-stick pan with oil and set over a medium high heat. Fry fritters in batches for about 5 minutes each side, or until golden brown.
5 Serve with yoghurt sauce, extra mint or parsley leaves, dressed salad leaves and lemon wedges, if using.
Make it gluten free: Use gluten-free breadcrumbs and check hummus and sumac are gluten-free.
Make it vegan: Substitute flax or chia seeds for eggs – 1 teaspoon seeds to 3 tablespoons water per egg. Use coconut yoghurt.
Check hummus is vegan.
Sumac is found in the spice aisle at supermarkets. It has a tangy citrus flavour.
