- 2 cups grated carrots
- 6 green onions, chopped
- 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- 3 eggs
- 3/4 teaspoon salt
- 1 pinch freshly ground black pepper
- Pour about 1/2-inch depth of oil in a large saucepan or electric skillet and heat to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
- Mix carrots, green onion, flour, and baking powder together in a bowl until carrots are evenly coated. Beat eggs, salt, and pepper together in a separate bowl; pour over carrot mixture. Stir mixture until combined and moistened.
