  • 3 Tbsp Mediterranean Basil Pesto Chunky Dip
  • 1 tsp lemon zest
  • 100g crumbled feta
  • Lemon wedges

Makes: 30 fritters (approx.)
Prep time: 10 minutes
Cook time: 15 minutes

Method:

  1. In a large bowl mix courgettes, spring onions, fresh herbs, eggs, flour, Mediterranean Basil Pesto Chunky Dip, lemon zest and feta.
  2. Season to taste.
  3. Heat a dash of oil in a frying pan and cook small spoonfuls of the mixture for 2 minutes on each side or until golden and cooked through.

  • Thank you for your recipe. I have a very similar recipe and this year with the amount of courgettes I decided to make batches of them and freeze them for winter. It became time consuming and messy so I decided to about 12 in one batch in the oven, and I was delighted with the result they even looked as if they came out of the fry pan. I will be doing them this way in future. No oil or ghee was used only baking paper.
