  • 1 tbsp chopped parsley
  • 1 tbsp chopped mint
  • 2 eggs, lightly beaten
  • 60 g flour

  • 1 clove of garlic, chopped
  • 1 tbsp olive oil

  • 1 mixing bowl

Step 2: Squeeze the courgettes

After 30 minutes, squeeze the excess liquid from the courgettes and pat dry.

    I would recommend using a fork or other utensil to help in turning the fritters over when frying, and NOT your fingers which could get a scalding from the hot oil!

    Courgette is also called Zucchini, which will be a big "OH!" for those on this side of the pond :)
