A tasty and simple meal that tastes of summer. This will make about eight rissoles – enough for four people.
3-4 medium courgettes
1 onion
1 pack halloumi cheese
3 tablespoons plain flour
1 egg
1 tablespoon chopped dill or mint (optional)
juice of half a lemon (optional)
Olive oil for frying
Grate the courgettes, place in a clean tea towel or muslin and squeeze as much liquid out as possible. Transfer to a large bowl. Grate the onion and cheese and add these to the courgettes. Add all the other ingredients except the oil. Mix well adding more flour if the mixture is a little on the wet side.
Heat the oil in a large frying pan. Grab a golf ball sized blob of the mixture and flatten it in your hands. Fry in the hot oil until brown on each side – about 5 minutes per side.
Serve with new potatoes, a watercress salad and a generous helping of natural yogurt with chives.
Loved the Fritters, they were really delicious. A very unusual way of cooking Halloumi and so fresh and perfect for Spring too!
Thank you,
Thanks Ann. if you liked those you’ll love the halloumi and mint vegeburgers too.
Thank you Ian, the Halloumi and Mint Burgers will be on our Menu very soon. I am sure they will be equally delicious,
Best Wishes,
