About Cassava fitters
Cassava Fitters, also called cassava fritters, are a delightful snack or side dish rooted in Afro-Caribbean cuisine. Made from grated cassava, eggs, herbs, and spices, these small, crispy treats are pan- or deep-fried to golden perfection. Cassava, a starchy root vegetable, offers a gluten-free alternative for those avoiding wheat-based options, and provides a good source of carbohydrates for energy. The dish is often complemented with scallions, garlic, and chili for a flavorful boost. While cassava is naturally rich in minerals such as calcium and magnesium, proper preparation is necessary to remove harmful cyanogenic compounds found in its raw form. Though the fritters are fried, making them higher in fat, they can be modified with baking or air-frying for a lighter option. Whether served on their own or alongside savory dips, Cassava Fitters celebrate the versatility and richness of traditional tropical flavors.
