Courgette and Halloumi Fritters

Course Lunch
Keyword Fritters, Vegetarian

Ingredients

  • 2 or 3 Courgettes
  • 200 g Halloumi grated or chopped finely
  • 100 g Plain Flour
  • 100 g Rice Flour
  • 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1 tsp Dried Mint
  • Water or Milk as needed
  • Oil for frying

Instructions

  • Grate the courgettes into a bowl, squeeze out some of their liquid but leave this in the bowl to form the batter.
  • Add the halloumi salt and both flours and stir to mix.
  • Add a little water or milk to form a spoonable batter. Its difficult to describe what this is exactly but you are looking for a consistency that's thick, maybe like yogurt.
  • Heat oil in a pan over a fairly high heat. Spoon the batter into the pan, you can fit about 6 spoons in a 30 cm pan. Spread the fritter out flatter in the oil so that they will cook through more quickly.
  • When they are brown, see above for a clue, turn over and cook on the other side. Drain on kitchen roll.
  • Cook more batches the same way, or use several pans. Serve as soon as possible.
