Full Recipe:
Ingredients:

4-5 medium potatoes
1 large carrot (or 2 smaller ones)
200-300 g broccoli florets
1-2 onions
2 tbsp cornstarch
Salt and black pepper, to taste
1 tbsp dried herb mixture (rosemary, oregano, thyme, basil)
1 tbsp garlic powder
1 bunch of fresh parsley, chopped (for serving)
Vegetable oil for frying (approximately 4 tbsp)
Steps to Make Vegetable Fritters with Broccoli, Potatoes, and Carrots:

Step 1: Prepare the Vegetables

Peel and Grate the Potatoes and Carrots: Start by peeling the potatoes and carrots. Using a box grater or a food processor, grate the potatoes and carrots into fine shreds. Place the grated vegetables in a clean kitchen towel or cheesecloth and squeeze out any excess moisture. This step is important to help the fritters crisp up when frying.
Chop the Broccoli: Cut the broccoli into small florets and either finely chop them by hand or pulse them in a food processor until they are small enough to mix into the fritter batter.
Chop the Onion: Finely chop the onion, making sure the pieces are small so they blend easily into the mixture. If you prefer a milder onion flavor, you can sauté the onions for a few minutes before adding them to the mix.
Step 2: Make the Fritter Mixture

Combine the Vegetables: In a large mixing bowl, combine the grated potatoes, grated carrots, chopped broccoli, and chopped onions. Stir everything together to distribute the vegetables evenly.
Add Seasonings: Season the vegetable mixture with salt and black pepper to taste. Add the garlic powder and the dried herb mixture (rosemary, oregano, thyme, and basil). Stir to incorporate the seasonings throughout the vegetables.
Add Cornstarch: Add 2 tablespoons of cornstarch to the vegetable mixture. The cornstarch acts as a binding agent and helps give the fritters a crispy texture. Stir well to combine, ensuring the cornstarch is evenly distributed throughout the mixture.
Step 3: Shape and Fry the Fritters
