Pork fritters are breaded and fried patties made from seasoned ground pork or tenderized pork loin. Originating from traditional American comfort food, they are often enjoyed in Midwestern cuisine, either as a main dish, sandwich filling, or alongside classic sides like mashed potatoes and gravy. Typically, pork fritters consist of pork meat, flour, breadcrumbs, eggs, and spices. While they serve as a protein-rich option, their healthiness depends on preparation methods. Frying increases fat and calorie content, making baked alternatives a better choice for those seeking a lighter option. Moderation is key, as pork fritters are also high in sodium depending on seasoning and breading. For added nutritional balance, pairing them with fresh vegetables can make this indulgent dish part of a more wholesome meal.
