| This recipe for light and cheerful courgette, pea and mint fritters came from Sus Davy, who wrote the delightful Rough Measures food blog. This wonderful summer recipe makes great use of Green Pea Flour along with fresh peas or any other seasonal veg or wild greens. |
‘I’ve been using Hodmedod’s pea flour for a while now, and love how versatile it is. The flour smells wonderful and has a very subtle taste. These courgette and pea fritters are simple and speedy, for quick evening dinners, but still pack flavour. I like to make a big batch of them, to keep on the side, as an afternoon snack, or to bulk out a salad for dinner.’ - Sus Davy

Really tasty and easy to make – used the soaked carmelina seeds in place of egg as suggested on the recipe card and they worked brilliantly. Went well with the quinoa salad,with lime, mint and olives and the quick fava bean hummus (again from H’s recipe cards) along with a nice aubergine/harissa dish and pitta breads.
I left the skins on the courgettes and spiralised, then chopped them. I find it a bit easier than grating them (or getting my super Magimix out of the cupboard and having to clean it afterwards!)
Can’t wait to get going on some more recipes tonight!
We first tried this after picking up the recipe card at the Aldeburgh Food festival 2016. Its a brilliant recipe and great way to showcase this excellent flour. Having made it more than once, I would only say a bit of care is needed to ensure that no lumps form as the flour and liquids combine, so sprinkling the flour over helped – perhaps Gabriel has more detailed guidance?? And boy, there is a lot of liquid to be squeezed out of those courgettes, which are such a delicious base for this simple dish.
Made these this morning – added fresh basil instead of mint. They are really tasty. Next time I’m going to substitute apple for the courgette and make some sweet ones :).

Eden's latest recipe is inspired by the Catalan method of adding dry or fried bread to dishes to thicken sauces and make them more luxurious. Paired with the briny and acid dressing, this is a great way to eat beans, not at all heavy but both savoury and bright. Best served with salad and bread – double bread! – why not?
Sikil Pak is a deliciously nutty and moorish traditional Mayan dip made from toasted or roasted pumpkin seeds and charred tomatoes. Serve alongside freshly fried totopos (tortilla chips) with a margarita if you fancy.

As you so kindly sent me the recipe card for these fritters I had to try them out on a very “carnivorous” friend today! The plate was empty in no time and he loved them eventhough there wasn’t a scrap of meat to be seen. Please keep these delicious recipes comig, they are sooooo inspirational and easy to follow! Well done and thank you!
