Courgette fritters

Courgette fritters

As you know I am on a journey to learn to cook wholesome home-made veggie food for my family. This week I decided to try my hand at courgette fritters.

I have a fabulous foodie friend called Helen who writes at The Crazy Kitchen and she pointed me in the right direction of a good recipe of hers.

Helen’s recipe was actually for corn and pea fritters which look delicious and she helped me adapt it for courgettes
