Ingredients
- 3 courgettes (approximately 500g)
- 1 egg, lightly beaten
- 3 tbsp finely chopped mint leaves
- 100g feta cheese, crumbled
- Salt and black pepper
- Chilli flakes (optional)
- 75g chickpea flour
- 3 - 4 tbsp olive oil
Method
1. Coarsely grate the courgettes, then squeeze out as much water as possible by putting them in a clean tea towel and wringing them out as hard as you can.
2. Mix the squeezed courgette with the egg in a large mixing bowl with the mint, feta, salt and pepper, and a little chilli, if you are using.
3. Once well mixed, add the chickpea flour until the consistency is such that you can form small sloppy balls of mixture, each roughly the size of a walnut.
4. Pour 2 tbsp of the oil in a large frying pan over a medium - low heat. As you form each patty, drop it gently into the pan and fry for 3 - 4 minutes on each side, until nicely browned and crisp outside and cooked within - you may need to press and shape each fritter with a spatula as you cook it. You should be able to cook around 6 fritters in each batch.
5. Keep the first batch warm on a plate covered with foil while you cook the rest, adding more oil as you cook, if you need it. Serve the fritters warm, with yogurt dips if liked.
