Directions

For fritters:

1. In the bowl of a food processor, combine thawed edamame, kale, salt, ginger and cumin. Pulse briefly, once or twice. The mixture should still be recognizable and not a paste.

2. Add the water, egg yolks and baking powder. Scrape mixture into a bowl. Beat egg whites until their hold peaks, but aren’t stiff. Using a spatula, fold edamame/kale mixture.

3. Heat a little oil in a nonstick skillet. Drop batter by the heaping tablespoonful and fry for 3 minutes on each side. Drain on paper towels, serving immediately with Chutney.

For Chutney:

1. Combine all ingredients in a food processor and pulse until chopped fine.

2. Serve at once.
