Gluten Free Courgette Fritters

Method

• step 1

  Grate the courgettes and press them between kitchen towels to remove the excess moisture. Place in a bowl, together with the rice flour and eggs. Grate in the parmesan cheese and season the mixture with salt and pepper. Mix it all up until well combined.

• step 2

  Heat the oil in a frying pan over a medium heat.

• step 3

  Place a tablespoon of mixture into the pan and flatten. Repeat with another 3 tablespoons so you’ve got 4 fritters on the go at once. Pan fry them for 2-3 mins, then turn them over and do the same on the other side, until they are golden brown.

• step 4

  Transfer them to a plate whilst you repeat step 3 again until all your mixture is used up (note you may need to add a little more oil to the pan between batches).

• step 5

  Serve hot with a poached egg on top, or keep them in the fridge and serve cold with dips like you would a pitta bread.
