This recipe was inspired by eating at a local cafe. Topping the fritters with the avocado mash and salsa really adds to the beautiful flavours of the whole dish.
This recipe is so packed with loads of nutrients. Remember you can cook the pumpkin the night before while you are doing dinner. Then stage 2 is easy the next night. I love inventing ways to make cooking flow from one night to the next.
And remember you can serve this with fish, chicken or any other protein of your choice if you so desire or keep it vegetarian.
Great nurturing meal for a cool night or cook it in bulk to share with friends.
