Parties are always a great way to enjoy at any time; whether for a celebration or just for fun. Recently a lot more people have started to venture into becoming vegetarians. Hence, vegetarian appetizers for parties have become a large part of the preparation as well.
These preparations take up less of your time than any other preparations. Throw together some tahini, olive oil and some salt; add some crushed chickpeas from a tin and you have yourself an enjoyable dip called hummus. To give it that real hummus taste you must add crushed garlic. This is a dip for everyone at your party and not just for your vegetarians. The easiest with this dip is that there is already bread and crisps for everyone.
If you do want your vegetarian guests to feel a little bit more special, make them same crisps from Kale or Spinach. You do not have to remove the stem, because they could hold onto it when they dip it into the guacamole or hummus you have prepared. These crisps do not require any salt as they already have their own salty taste. All you have to do is fry those with fleshy leaves in some oil until crisp.
If you have never tried this before, try some flowers. I am sure your vegetarian guests would truly appreciate your effort. All you have to do is take some nasturtiums and make some fritters with them. Remember to have a little stalk for the guests to hold onto or you could pit them on a toothpick. Make some lavender flower fritters as well. They have lovely strong stalks and tastes great. They will also relax your guests. Elder flowers also make for tasty fritters
Nice, big jalapenos make for a wonderful easy appetizer. They can be baked or fried as is and placed in between as garnish and for the eating. Remember to slice them in half as you do want to get rid of the pips inside. You could also fill them with some stuffing of your choice. Do not use cheese or cream to bind the filling, as not all vegetarians eat dairy products (even though they are not vegan).
Samoosas (or samosas are fried in deep oil so be careful to drain most of the oil away before you serve them. This you do by placing them on a paper towel after frying. These are Indian pastries in the form of triangles, with a filling. These pastries are available from your local supermarket in frozen form.
A very tasty filling is either potato or sweet potato. It is more stable than other vegetables that might fall out. However, you might want to use any vegetable for this purpose. The easiest is to buy frozen ones at the supermarket and all you have to do is fry them yourself until golden brown).
Bruschetta is a repetitive appetizer, because it is always a huge success. You will always find it at parties, simply because it is so easy to make. These are slices from a French loaf which has been toasted in a preheated oven to a crispy texture or until golden brown. A topping of your choice is set on top. Combinations such as Spinach (shredded), fresh basil, garlic and tomato are always tasty.
