Courgette, Pea and Mint Fritters

August 17, 2016

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

Preparation time: 10 mins | Cooking time: 6 mins | Total time: 16 mins

Makes 12 Fritters

Ingredients

2 Large Courgettes (skinned)
150g cooked fresh Green Peas - or any other seasonal fresh veg or wild greens
A good handful of fresh Mint
140g Hodmedod’s green pea flour
1 Egg
Salt to taste
Ground Black Pepper
Rapeseed Oil, or similar frying oil

Method

Grate the courgettes into a large bowl (be sure not to grate your fingers).
Sprinkle grated courgette with a pinch of salt, stir through and leave to sit for about 10 minutes.
In another bowl, combine the remaining ingredients (bar the oil).
Once the courgette has finished resting, using your hands, squeeze over the sink with your hands to remove excess liquid.
Add the courgette to the other ingredients and mix well.
Heat the oil in a frying pan on a medium-high heat.
Take a tablespoon, and transfer spoonfuls of the fritter mixture to the pan.
Flatten the spoonfuls with the back of a wooden spoon.
Cook for a few minutes on either side.
Eat while piping hot, or leave to cool and store in an airtight container in the fridge for up to 3 days.
