1 pound ground pork
1 cup breadcrumbs
1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley
1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1/2 teaspoon paprika
2 eggs, beaten
1/4 cup all-purpose flour
Oil for frying
1/4 cup honey
2 tablespoons soy sauce
1 tablespoon apple cider vinegar
1 tablespoon olive oil
Directions
In a large bowl, combine ground pork, breadcrumbs, parsley, cilantro, garlic, salt, pepper, and paprika. Mix until well combined.
Shape the mixture into small, round patties, about 2 inches in diameter.
Dredge each patty in flour, then dip in beaten eggs, and finally coat with breadcrumbs.
Heat oil in a deep skillet over medium-high heat. Fry the patties in batches until golden brown and cooked through, about 3-4 minutes per side. Drain on paper towels.
In a small saucepan, combine honey, soy sauce, apple cider vinegar, and olive oil. Bring to a simmer over low heat, stirring occasionally, until the glaze thickens slightly.
Brush the warm fritters with the herb glaze and sprinkle with additional chopped parsley and cilantro before serving.

Variations & Tips
For a spicier kick, add a pinch of cayenne pepper to the pork mixture. You can also experiment with different herbs, such as thyme or rosemary, for a unique flavor profile. If you prefer a lighter version, try baking the fritters in the oven at 375°F for about 20 minutes, flipping halfway through. For a gluten-free option, use gluten-free breadcrumbs and flour.
