Ingredients
- 4-5 medium courgettes
- 1/2 cup flour
- 1/4 cup chopped mint
- 100 g feta, crumbled
- 2 eggs, lightly whisked
- freshly ground black pepper
Method
I love these drizzled with a sauce of natural yoghurt,sea salt, chopped garlic and mint.
Grate courgettes and place in a colander, sprinkle with 1/2 teaspoon sea salt and leave to drain for 30 minutes.
Press courgettes to remove any excess liquid and place in a bowl along with mint, crumbled feta and flour. Make a well in the centre and add eggs, mix until combined. Season to taste with freshly ground black pepper.
Heat a film of oil in a frying pan over a medium heat, place spoonfuls of batter into the pan and cook fritters until golden on both sides. Remove from the pan and drain on paper towels.
Serve warm.
I make a very similar recipe, but I grate the courgette on a clean tea towel and gently squeeze the excess liquid out. I generally cut the feta into small chunks, and I always use brown rice flour instead of regular flour to ensure the fritters are crispy. Delicious.
Made these fritters last night ,they were deliscous
I teach Special needs adult to cook at Super Gran Manawatu and they just love these fritters and so easy for them to make. Thanyou Helen
We have so many in the garden & so what a nice change this will make to go with my ham & new potatoes.
Just a silly little thing Helen but I searched for courgette Fritters-no result-went to Facebook as I had seen the recipe there & it is under Zucchini, fine but then you call them courgettes in the ingredients area. Gave me a giggle anyway.
Love this recipe.
Have also made this with grated carrots instead of succhini (because too expensive) and added a teaspoon of cumin. Difficult to crumble the feta I buy so I grate it into the mixture.
Served with Mango Relish
Yummmmmmmmmmmmmmm
This Zucchini Fritter Recipe looks and sounds so yum! I will pick up some zucchini from my brothers garden on the way home from work and then once home it will out with the frypan-the dipping sauce sounds great too
Thanks Helen
Mmm, lovely with a wee bit of egg mayo and parmesan on top too!
These look just what I want today with All ingredients on board. It is so good to be able to receive such great advice and inspiration each Saturday morning .
Thankyou sincerely

I love the sound of the courgette fritters. I have been following the weight watchers menus for 10 weeks and have lost 11 kgs :) and the fritters sound just great for a meatless meal. Love your show by the way

I also make these fritters and we think they are delicious.
Have made extra batches and frozen for times when no courgettes available.
