Zucchini Fritters
INGREDIENTS:
Makes 12 fritters
-
500g Zucchini
-
1 cup Green peas
-
1 bunch Parsley, chopped
-
1 bunch Mint, chopped
-
4 Spring onions, sliced
-
Good pinch Sea salt
-
Generous grind Black pepper
-
Zest from 1 Lemon
-
3 Eggs
-
½ cup Almond meal or quinoa crumbs
INSTRUCTIONS:
-
Grate the zucchini and place into a colander.
-
Sprinkle with a little sea salt and mix through.
-
Let it sit for 10 minutes. Squeeze out all the moisture from the zucchini with your hands. Place the zucchini into a large bowl. Add parsley, mint, peas, spring onion, pepper, lemon zest, eggs and almond meal or quinoa crumbs.
-
Mix well until combined. At this stage it’s good to test cook a fritter to make sure it holds together well. Add a touch more almond meal if necessary.
-
Cook fritters in a pan over a medium heat in a little olive oil for 2 minutes each side or until cooked through.
