- 1 small courgette
- 2 cloves of garlic, minced
- 1 tsp cumin seeds
- 1 tsp oregano
- 2 Tbsp chickpea flour
- ½ tsp smoked paprika
- ½ tsp baking powder
- Salt& pepper
- Olive oil or olive oil spray
Instructions
- Peel the parsnip, then grate it coarsely.Grate the courgette too.
- Mix them in a strainer, and add some salt. Rest for 5 minutes, then squeeze out the excess liquid.
- Transfer the mixture to a bowl. Add the spices, minced garlic, baking powder and chickpea flour. Season with salt & pepper, then toss well. You should get a slightly sticky, malleable mixture. If it’s too dry, add a drop of lemon juice.
