Classic Kiwi Whitebait Fritters Recipes
WHITEBAIT FRITTERS
Steps:
- Beat the eggs with a fork in a bowl until light and frothy. Stir the whitebait into the egg mix. Add a good pinch of salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste. Mix together well.
- In a large frying pan add the oil and butter to the pan on a medium heat. When the butter starts to bubble add the egg and whitebait mixture in even tablespoonfuls and cook for one-two minutes, then flip and cook the other side until lightly golden brown.
- When cooked transfer to a warmed spare plate. Continue cooking in batches of 5-6 fritters until the mixture is finished.
- Serve with fresh lemon wedges - and slices of fresh buttered white bread for the classic traditional Kiwi serving.

THE BEST NEW ZEALAND WHITEBAIT FRITTERS
NZ whitebait season is now open and what better way to celebrate being a Kiwi than NZ whitebait fritters! Whitebait are highly prized little fishes collected en masse from New Zealand rivers and eaten whole in buttery, whitebait fritters. Whitebait is most commonly served in fritters. In this NZ whitebait fritters recipe, we've used a small amount of flour, which I think gives the best result. But fritters can be made using just egg, or egg white, more like an omelette. FYI, whitebait fritters remain one of the most asked for finger food items at parties and events. People can't get enough of them - so make wee ones for a BBQ platter, or try serving fritters with asparagus and a hollandaise sauce for a main meal. These are the best whitebait fritters, hands down. This whitebait recipe is easy as!

Steps:
- Drain your whitebait in a colander. Set aside.
- In another bowl, sieve the flour. Make a well and add the beaten eggs with a dash of water, then mix into a smooth, thick batter.
- Now gently fold in the whitebait, sliced spring onions and lemon juice (or lemon pepper). Season the mixture with salt and pepper.
- Melt butter in a good quality, heavy pan and place a large spoonful of the fritter mixture in the pan. Shape into round fritters and cook until the egg is set or until golden on one side (use egg-flip to peek under). You do not need to wait for the fish to go white. Then gently flip over as you would an omelette and cook the other side for 20 seconds.
