Ingredients

Courgette and feta fritters

  • 6 courgettes, trimmed and coarsely grated
  • 2 spring onions, thinly sliced
  • Handful fresh parsley leaves, finely chopped
  • 200 g feta, crumbled
  • ½ cup flour
  • 3 eggs, lightly beaten
  • ¼ cup olive oil

Minted yoghurt dipping sauce

  • 1 cup Greek yoghurt
  • Handful fresh mint leaves, finely shredded
  • 1 lemon, juiced
  • 1 - 2 spring onions, finely sliced
Substitutions

Use fresh mint leaves in place of parsley or replace the feta with a mild, creamy blue cheese.

Method

  1. Squeeze any excess liquid from the grated courgettes and place in a large mixing bowl. 
  2. Add the spring onion, parsley, feta, flour and eggs. Season with salt and pepper and mix to combine.
  3. Heat the oil in a large frying pan over medium heat. Drop spoonfuls of the fritter mixture into the pan and cook for 2-3 minutes on each side until golden and cooked. Set aside and keep warm. Repeat with the remaining mixture.
  4. To make the yoghurt sauce mix, together yoghurt, mint and lemon juice. Serve in a bowl topped with chopped spring onion.
  5. Serve the fritters warm or at room temperature with the minted yoghurt and spring onion sauce. Enjoy!
Chef tips

These fritters freeze well and make delicious finger food - make them small and serve with the yoghurt and mint dipping sauce or top fritters with a little pesto or tomato salsa.

My family love this recipe. It is always a hit! I drop my son Max off to football and can make this recipe and have the kitchen clean by the time I pick him up. A hump day favourite
