1. Video tutorial: Preparing chillies

1. Tip all the fritter ingredients into a bowl. Gradually work in about 200ml cold water until everything is bound in a thick, spoonable batter (you can do this an hour ahead, but the fritters should be cooked at the last minute).
2. Heat a decent layer of oil in a large frying pan, then fry large spoonfuls of the batter for 2 mins until golden. Flip them over, cook on the other side, then lift onto kitchen paper and keep warm while you cook another batch.
3. Make the salsa by mixing all the ingredients together. Serve the fritters with the salsa for spooning over.

  Salsa was lovely but the fritters did not work at all, the batter didn't stick to them, they weren't crispy because of the amount of water in the courgette. Wouldn't bother with this again.

  We loved them but I agree about the water - having already tried the Courgette Fritter recipe I grated the courgettes & left out the water.

  I cooked the "quick stir fried courgettes" and they were lovely. I might omit the chilli seeds next time though as by homegrown chilli's were a little hot!
