Courgette Pancake Fritters
Ingredients
- 1 medium courgette, grated
- 1 large egg
- 1/2 tsp baking powder
- 3 tbsp flour
- 1/2 tsp paprika
- salt and pepper to taste
Preparation
In a large bowl, mix together the beaten egg, baking powder, flour, paprika and pinch of salt. Squeeze the excess water out of the grated courgette and add to the mixture. A thick pancake-like consistency should form. Heat oil in a pan over a medium heat and scoop in large tablespoons of the batter, flattening the individual spoonfuls into pancake shape. Cook for approx. 6 minutes, flipping half way, or until the pancakes turn golden on the outside
Served with wilted spinach, tomatoes and a poached egg - a side of avocado would work well too
