Courgette fritters

Just had to dream up something for daughter's breakfast and then I remembered a conversation we had on Friday evening about the vegetables she would like to grow in the garden this year. She remembered picking one of her courgettes and then having courgette fritters last year for breakfast. Then I realised that courgettes had arrived this week in my organic box.

Courgette Fritters

1 courgette - grated on large holes
1 egg
self raising flour
salt and pepper

Grate the courgette and put in a bowl, season with salt and pepper add the egg straight into the bowl with the courgette, mix well then add enough self-raising flour to make a dropable batter.
Heat some sunflower oil in a frying pan, spoon in tablespoons of the batter then shallow fry until golden brown, turn and fry the other side.
Serve with some tomato ketchup.

If you want to add some additional flavour, I've added some chopped spring onions, chopped chilli. Also 25g grated cheddar cheese changes it up too.
