These simple herbs loaded fritters, served with an even simpler garlicky yoghurt sauce, are from South-Eastern Turkey. I used chickpea flour to make them gluten free, but you definitely can use plain flour if you have no issues with gluten. Serve them hot while still very crispy, but they are very tasty even warm or cold.

This is one of those classic appetizer recipes that works at any time of day. It's absolutely delicious and yet so simple to whip up. They're crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, and pair perfectly with a homemade sweet chilli sauce, which will keep for about a month in the fridge. You can also freeze the sauce in small portions in ice cube tray. I have added a mini paprika (or 1/3 of regular red paprika) to the sauce for a fruity note.

Whether as a snack between meals, with an afternoon coffee or as an office treat: these apricot oat slices taste great and are a delight! They are easy to transport and can also be made in advance as they stay fresh in the fridge for several days. Conveniently, you don't need to use the oven, just chill them. Oat flakes, dried apricots, coconut flakes and almond meal are not only filling but also nutritious. A silky coating of Lindt white chocolate provides the fun gourmet factor. The subtly hot and fruity chilli thread are the perfect addition to elevate chocolate taste, adding a delightful kick to each bite.

Anchovies might be small, but they have huge health benefits and flavour. They are a good source of omega-3, protein, various vitamins and minerals. So I hope that you embrace the idea of popping the whole fish (yes, heads, bones, fins..all is GOOD) into the mouth and savour every bit of this oily, bite-size superfood. The preparation is rather simple and straightforward-fresh anchovies are rinsed, dried and simply battered by tossing them with ground pork rind (or flour if you ain't on keto) and then in egg, and then quickly fried in tallow (or olive oil) until golden brown. They are great as a snack or an appetizer.

These vegetarian patties are chewy, nutty and so flavourful. You could put them in wraps / pita pockets, or as topping for salads. Bulgur is cracked wheat berries that have been partially cooked and then dried. This whole grain is nutty and rich in fiber, it cooks fast and is used a lot in Mediterranean cuisine.

British flapjacks, aka cereal bars or oat bars, are made from oats, golden syrup, butter, and sugar. They are quick, easy to make and budget friendly. The variations on the traditional recipe are endless and this one is based on the recipe I found on BBC Good Food. I replaced the sugar with erythritol and used pomegranate syrup instead of golden syrup. You can use any seasonal fruit you have to make these flapjacks, such as cherries and apricots and experiment with different nuts or seeds. They are great for breakfast on the go, lunch boxes, picnics or afternoon tea.

These keto aubergine balls are made with a mixture of egg yolks, almond meal, flat parsley, garlic, freshly grated Parmesan cheese and a touch of salt and pepper. They are then coated with ground pork rind and fried in lard until golden and crispy. If you are not on keto, then replace almond meal and pork rind with breadcrumbs. Whether as a starter with a delicious dip or as finger food at a party, or take them to a picnic, these aubergine balls always work!

Radishes dipped with softened butter and sprinkled with sea salt is a classic low-carb snack in French cuisine. The secret to this French canapé is in the quality ingredients. So use the best unsalted butter, fresh, mild radishes (I used tri-coloured radishes) and sea salt, like fleur de sel or herb/spiced salt. I used kala namak black rock salt because I love it. The butter really works to tame the pungency and peppery flavour of the radishes and, of course, a little salt simply enhances the flavour.

Crispy on the outside, soft and tender inside and spiked with spices, these green falafels can be eaten as a snack, with a salad or wrapped in warm pita bread. Falafel are traditionally made in the Middle East from dried chickpeas or/and broad beans but this recipe starts with a tin of drained chickpeas for speed.
Use chickpea flour to coat your hands when shaping your falafels or with a bowl of water on hand to keep your hands wet. Either technique works well to prevent your hands from becoming sticky with the falafel mixture.
