Steps:
- Whisk together yolks, oil, and beer in a bowl. Slowly add flour, stirring until just combined. Set aside 20 minutes. Wash and dry herbs. Whisk egg whites to soft peaks; fold into beer batter. Add salt and pepper.
- In a heavy-bottomed saucepan, heat oil, 1 inch deep, over medium heat until hot but not smoking, 375 degrees. Dip each herb into batter, shaking off excess, until lightly coated. Place herbs in oil, turning until golden, about 1 minute. Drain on paper towels; season with salt. Serve with lemon wedges.
HERB FRITTERS
Inspired by a recipe in Clifford A. Wright's "The Little Foods of the Mediterranean," these fritters are light and delicate. You can use a mix of herbs and finely chopped greens - mild ones like spinach and chard, or more robust greens like dandelion or arugula - or all herbs, or all greens. You can also use this batter as a vehicle for other finely chopped or grated vegetables, like cabbage or carrots, onions or leeks. The fritters make a great hors d'oeuvre or side dish.

Steps:
- Mix together flours, baking powder and salt in a large bowl. Make a well in the center and add egg yolk and oil. Beat egg yolk and oil together, add sparkling water and mix in flour. Whisk until smooth. Cover with plastic and let sit for 2 hours.
- Beat egg white to stiff but not dry peaks and fold into batter. Fold in finely chopped herbs and greens.
- Pour oil into a wok or wide saucepan to a depth of 3 inches and heat over medium-high heat to 360 to 375 degrees. Set up a sheet pan with a rack on it next to pan. Cover rack with a few layers of paper towels. Have a spider or deep fry skimmer handy for removing fritters from oil.
- . Scoop up the batter by the tablespoon and carefully drop into the hot oil. You should be able to fry about 5 at a time. After a few seconds flip the fritters over, then fry until golden brown, about 2 minutes, flipping over again halfway through. Remove from oil with a spider or deep-fry skimmer and drain on the towel-covered rack. Allow to cool slightly, and serve.

Steps:
- Toast the cumin seeds in a large, non-stick frying pan for about 1 min, shaking the pan until a shade darker, taking care not to burn. Remove from the heat and place the seeds in a mixing bowl.
- Add everything else, except the oil, lemon and chilli sauce, to the bowl. Season well and mix very thoroughly. Using wet hands, take walnut-size handfuls of the mixture, then press into flat little cakes, like fish cakes or patties. They can now be chilled until ready to cook, or cooked straight away.
- Reheat the pan over a medium flame and add enough oil to cover the base of the pan. When hot, add the fritters, cook until golden underneath, then turn over and cook until golden all over. Be careful as they may splutter slightly. Drain on kitchen paper and keep warm as you cook batches. Serve with lemon wedges and sweet chilli sauce.

SWISS CHARD FRITTERS
This recipe, adapted from "Jerusalem," by Yotam Ottolenghi and Sami Tamimi, appeared in The Times in 2012 as part of a Hanukkah food article. It is packed with fragrant dill and cilantro, and studded with feta. The fritters would go well with smoked salmon and a little yogurt, or a garlicky spread of beets, dill, walnuts and horseradish that pulls from the Ashkenazi tradition. Either way, they are a great vegetable counterpoint to the starchier dishes of Hanukkah. They cook fast, and should be served warm.

Steps:
- Bring a large pot of salted water to a boil, add chard and simmer for 5 minutes. Remove from pot and drain well, patting leaves dry with a paper or kitchen towel.
- Place chard in food processor with herbs, nutmeg, sugar, flour, garlic and eggs. Pulse until well blended. Fold in feta by hand.
- Heat 1 tablespoon oil in a large sauté pan over medium-high heat. When oil is hot, spoon in 1 heaping tablespoon of mixture for each fritter (you should be able to fit three fritters per batch). Press down gently on fritter to flatten. Cook 1 to 2 minutes per side, until golden brown. Transfer to a baking sheet lined with paper towels. Add another tablespoon oil to pan and repeat. Serve warm, with lemon wedges (optional).

ZUCCHINI, POTATO AND HERB FRITTERS
Adapted from a recipe in 'The Australian Women's Weekly's TAPAS antipasto mezze'. Be vigilant about squeezing all the liquid from the vegetables and, after thoroughly squeezing out the liquid, pat the vegetables (except the garlic which is likely to stick to the paper!) with paper kitchen towelling. This is a recipe where it's a good idea to have all your ingredients ready before grating the vegetables and grating the potatoes last so they have less time to turn brown! The weights indicated are approximate so the following approximate weight equivalents should give you an idea of the general amount required: 410g = 13oz; 375g = 120z; 75g = 21/2 oz. The number of fritters you get will depend on what size you make them; the number that the fritters will serve will, of course, depend on how many appetisers or other dishes you are serving as part of an antipasto mezze platter.

Steps:
- Squeeze all the excess liquid from the potato, zucchini, onion and garlic, and use paper kitchen towelling to further pat dry the potatoes, zucchini and onion. One method is to put the vegetables into a small colandar or sieve, place this on or over the sink and press down on the vegetables several times.
- Combine the potato, zucchini, onion, garlic, flour, egg, mint, basil, pepper and salt in a large bowl.
- Pre-heat the oven to hot. 220°C or 425-450°F or gas mark 7-8.
- Heat oil in a large, preferably non-stick pan, and shallow-fry level tablespoons of the mixture, until the fritters are browned on both sides, place on paper kitchen towelling to absorb excess oil then transfer the fritters to oven trays and bake uncovered for about 10 minutes or until they are crisped and cooked right through.
- Combine the yoghurt and extra mint.
- Serve the fritters immediately with the yoghurt and mint topping.

SWISS CHARD AND HERB FRITTERS
These golden brown fritters, which come from Shvil's Tunisian-Jewish family, are bursting with fresh flavor, thanks to a generous helping of Swiss chard, parsley, cilantro, and dill. They're especially delicious as part of the traditional Sephardic Rosh Hashanah seder meal.

IRANIAN HERB FRITTERS FROM SIMPLE
Recipe courtesy of SIMPLE by Yotam Ottolenghi, 2018. These can be snacked on as they are, at room temperature, or served with a green tahini sauce and some extra herbs. If you want to make the tahini sauce, just blitz 3 tbsp/50g tahini, 1 1/2 cups/30g parsley, 1/2 crushed garlic clove, 2 tbsp lemon juice, and 1/8 tsp salt for 30 seconds and pour in 1/2 cup/120ml water. Adding the water last allows the parsley to get really broken up and turns the sauce as green as can be. This sauce is lovely spooned over all sorts of things-grilled meat and fish and roasted vegetables, for example-so double or triple the batch and keep it in the fridge. It keeps well for about 5 days. You might want to thin it with a little water or lemon juice to get it back to the right consistency. These fritters are a bit of a fridge-raid, using up whatever herbs you have around. As long as you keep the total net weight the same and use a mixture of herbs, this will still work wonderfully. The batter will keep, uncooked, for 1 day in the fridge. Alternatively, pile the fritters into pita bread with condiments, such as a combination of yogurt, chile sauce, pickled vegetables, and tahini. You'd just need one fritter per person, rather than two. Makes eight fritters, to serve four to eight (depending on whether everyone is having one in a pita or two as they are).

Steps:
- Place all the ingredients, apart from the oil, in a large bowl with 1/2 tsp of salt. Mix well to combine and set aside.
- Put 2 tbsp of the oil into a large nonstick pan and place over medium-high heat. Once hot, add ladles of batter to the pan. Do 4 fritters at a time, if you can-you want each of them to be about 5 inches/12cm wide-otherwise just do 2 or 3 at a time. Fry for 1-2 minutes on each side, until crisp and golden brown. Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate and set aside while you continue with the remaining batter and oil.
- Serve warm or at room temperature.
