Step 1

Grate the courgette and press between several sheets of kitchen paper to remove as much water as possible..

Step 2

Place the grated courgette in a large bowl and add the rest of the ingredients. Mix well until everything has combined.

Step 3

Heat oil or butter in a frying pan and add a large spoonful of the mixture to the pan. Flatten into a roundish fritter shape about 1/2 inch thick. Cook for 2-3 minutes on each side until golden brown. You will need to fry the fritters in batches, depending on how big your frying pan is. I was able to fry 4 at a time in mine.

Step 4

Serve warm with a dollop of creme fraiche and some chopped spring onions.
