1. Heat oven to 200C/fan 180C/gas 6. Tip the flour into a bowl, season, then gradually stir in the eggs and milk until you have a smooth batter. Stir in the cheese and half the chives.
2. In a dry non-stick frying pan, cook courgette over a high heat, stirring for 3-4 mins until just soft. Tip onto kitchen paper and squeeze dry, then stir into the batter.
3. Oil the pan, then drop in small ladlefuls of batter, cooking for a couple of mins on each side until golden. Continue until you have 12 fritters, then transfer to a baking tray and finish in the oven for 8 mins.

  Really easy to make and very tasty. Crsipy on the outside and soft on the inside. Had ours for lunch with salad.

  Made this a couple of times now, it so easy. I made it with the spinich and tomato salad they reccomended in the september good food, it went so well with it, I did subsitute a tsp of sherry vinegar for a tsp of lemon oil, bought at the good food show!! It worked wonderfully, sort of a sweet and sour taste. yum!

  My 2yr old daughter is a wee bit finicky about what she eats but these were a HUGE hit and it really was a pleasure to see her inhale them with cherry tomatoes! The 2nd time I tried it, I mixed in some curry powder which gave it a nice little spicy kick.

  Yummy! BF claimed he "could eat this all day" and scoffed the lot! Simple and tasty. I served with a spinach, cherry tomato, feta and red onion salad. Didn't like the idea of squeezing the courgettes dry so put them in a sieve and got rid of excess liquid that way.
