- 1 small onion, finely chopped
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1/2 tsp salt, 1/4 tsp black pepper
- 1/4 tsp paprika (optional for extra flavor)

- Prepare the mixture: In a large bowl, combine shredded cabbage, eggs, flour, Parmesan, onion, garlic, salt, pepper, and paprika. Mix until well combined.
- Heat the pan: In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium heat.
- Form fritters: Scoop 2–3 tablespoons of the cabbage mixture per fritter and flatten slightly in the skillet.
