Method
- 01
In a large bowl, whisk the eggs. Add the grated courgette (ensure it's well-squeezed to remove excess water), corn, peas, chopped spring onion, minced garlic, and parsley. Mix well.
- 02
Stir in the flour and breadcrumbs until just combined. Season with salt and pepper.
- 03
Heat a little olive oil in a non-stick pan over medium heat. Drop spoonfuls of the mixture into the pan, flattening slightly to form fritters.
- 04
Cook for 3-5 minutes per side, or until golden brown and cooked through.
- 05
Serve warm with a dollop of Greek yogurt or a fresh salad.
