Ingredients Method

Ingredients
  

  • 150 g grated Courgette
  • 50 g green peas
  • 100 g feta cheese crumbled
  • 2 Tbsp chickpea flour or rice flour
  • 1 large egg separated
  • 1 Tbsp of chopped fresh herbs of your choice oregano, basil or coriander
  • Oil for cooking

Method
 

  1. Mix the vegetables with the flour, egg yolk, green herbs and most of the feta cheese, gently mashing them together with a fork. Season with salt and pepper.
  2. Whisk the egg white into a light foam, then gently fold into the vegetable mixture.
  3. Pour oil into a pan (oils should be about 1 cm deep) or use a deep-fryer and heat. When the oil is hot, add dollops of the batter and press them down slightly with the back of the spoon.
  4. Cook the fritters for 3-4 minutes on both sides until golden, then transfer them to a plate lined with paper kitchen towel.
  5. Repeat with the remaining batter.
  6. Serve warm with a side salad, or at room temperature as nibbles.
