Zucchini Fritters

Mum made zucchini fritters for lunch, these gluten free - fructose friendly fritters are perfect for a lunch, breakfast or a easy to make snack. I like to eat them plain or with a cottage cheese. Alternatively, serve them with some avocado or fructose friendly dip. 


Zucchini Fritters Recipe



Makes 15 small fritters

Ingredients: 

2 medium zucchinis
pinch of salt
2 large organic free range eggs
3/4 cup cottage cheese (use 1/2 cup goats cheese if lactose intolerant) 
1/2 cup gluten free plain flour
1/2 cup gluten free self-rising flour
pinch of pepper 

Steps: 

1. Skin the zucchinis and grate. Add the salt and leave aside to sit. 

2. Beat eggs, add another pinch of salt and pepper to the egg and mix with cottage cheese.  

3. Squeeze out the excess water from the zucchini and add to the cottage cheese and egg mixture. Add both the self rising and plain flour. You may need to add more flour if the mixture is too runny. The batter should be quite thick and hold together well. 

4. Heat a fry pan on high with olive oil, cook a fritter at a time for about 1 minutes on either side or until golden brown and cooked through the middle. 

5. Serve on their own, with avocado or a dipping sauce
