Ingredients

Oil, for deep frying
1 1/2 pounds black eyed peas, cooked (canned works equally as well)
2 large eggs, beaten
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1 small to medium onion, minced
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
1/4 teaspoon baking powder

Directions

In a large, deep frying pan, heat about 1/2-inch of oil to 350 degrees F.

Mash cooked peas in a large mixing bowl. Add remaining ingredients and mix well. Shape into fritters, whatever size you desire. Carefully add fritters to the hot oil and fry until golden on 1 side. Carefully turn fritters over and continue frying until golden on the second side and cooked through in the middle. Remove and let drain on paper towels. Serve.

This is an easy and delicious recipe! We like to eat it with a chili mayo sauce and greens. I highly recommend it, and it's so affordable!

Made these for appetizers for Thanksgiving dinner. They were a huge hit. I added some minced ham and served it with a chipotle mayo. We're having them as a simple main course for dinner tonight served with rice and cabbage.

My husband and I were so upset when Suzabell's closed. We now can enjoy
our favorite appetizer. Thanks
