Notes
These vegan broccoli fritters are best served right away, but will last 5 days in an airtight container in the refrigerator.
The best way to reheat them is in a pan on the stove. Lightly oil a skillet and fry them for 1-2 minutes until heated through. Place them on a paper towel to get off excess oil.
I have also reheat them in the microwave (out of laziness), and they tasted great.
