Zucchini Fritters

Ingredients

  • 3 (about 400g) medium zucchini
  • 75g (1/2 cup) self-raising flour
  • 40g (1/2 cup) parmesan, finely grated, plus extra to serve
  • 3 shallots, ends trimmed, thinly sliced
  • 1 egg, whisked
  • 1/4 cup fresh continental parsley, chopped
  • 2 teaspoons dried Oregano Leaves
  • 1/4 teaspoon ground nutmeg
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil

Method

  1. Trim the ends from zucchini. Coarsely grate the zucchini. Place in a colander and squeeze out as much excess moisture as possible. Transfer to a bowl. Stir in self-raising flour, parmesan, shallots, egg, parsley, oregano, salt and nutmeg.
  2. Heat 1 teaspoon olive oil in a non-stick frying pan over medium-high heat. Drop three portions of zucchini mixture into pan. Cook for 1 1/2 minutes each side or until golden and cooked through. Transfer to a plate. Repeat with remaining olive oil and remaining zucchini mixture.
