When I was young, I was a very picky eater. If I didn’t like something, such as potatoes, I would drop them into my napkin when my Mom and Dad weren’t looking. Then, throw them away. I eventually got caught. But, instead of scold me, my Mom tried to make meals a little more interesting, something that I might like. These fritters were the answer. Every time I make them, it takes me back to when I was young and skinny!
