Fritter Away

When I decided to relaunch my blog I hoped by January I would have moved into my new place so I would be able to have a nice new space to show you guys. I was particularly looking forward to doing some foodie posts in my new kitchen but as it happens my moving date has been pushed to March, so I will have to wait a little longer before photographing my new flat and showing you all my new home items.

Today I wanted to share a recipe that I found on Pinterest and tweaked to my liking, when people find out i'm a vegetarian one of the most common questions I get asked is 'what do you eat?!' but not eating meat isn't as boring or as limiting as a lot people think. I like to make this as a weekend breakfast, but it's so easy and quick it can be used in any meal and is a fairly healthier option to the usual fried breakfast.

Ingredients (to make 6 fritters)

Half courgette
Handful of sweetcorn
1/4 cup of flour
Clove of garlic or I used a drizzle of garlic oil
1 egg
Salt
Pepper

It's hard to write this out as a 'method' as it is so simple, all you need to do is grate the courgette and throw all the ingredients into a bowl, then mix it up into a batter. 

Heat a frying pan up with a little oil, it they don't need to be deep fried to just a little to coat the pan is enough. 

Place spoonfuls of the mixture into the pan so they aren't touching and flatten like pancakes, cook on each side for 2 or 3 minutes. 

I decided to have mine with poached eggs on English muffins for Sunday breakfast, has anyone else ever tried this recipe or let me know how you get on with your own version!
