Courgette Fritters
A tasty way to snack on courgettes, you can serve these with a whole variety of dips, or just as part of dinner! My boy totally suprised me with this as he says “courgettes are yucky” and would normally refuse to eat a chunk of one but tried these and ate a whole pile of them!

Cut the courgettes into strips, dip into egg and roll in a mixture of cornmeal with paprika, dried herbs and a sprinkle of grated cheese.
Approx amounts:
1 medium courgette
100g cornmeal
30g cheddar
1 tsp paprika
1 tsp mixed herbs
1 egg
Bake in the oven at 220C/200 fan/Gas 7 for 20 minutes turning halfway through cooking.
