# Cheesy zucchini fritters

![](https://storage.crisp.chat/users/helpdesk/website/f8a5014bbe2c5000/img6870_3a62jm.jpg)

###### Cheesy Zucchini Fritters 

* 1 medium / large **Zucchini** (Cougette), grated - _swap full zucchini for half and half zucchini and carrot for more colour and extra bite!_
* A few sprigs of **Parsley**, chopped finely - _5 grams or roughly 1/4 cup of parsley is low FODMAP so use less than this to stay in the green!_
* 100g or 3/4 cup of **Cheese**, grated - _good choices include Monterey Jack, cheddar, mozzarella as they are low FODMAP and bind well_.
* 4 tbsp of **Flaxseed** (Linseed) - _often used as a vegan food binder and egg alternative, flaxseed is high in fibre and protein, and what's best is it's low FODMAP_.
* 2 tbsp of **Oat Flour** - _blitz your oats yourself to make oat flour or choose any flour alternative you prefer, just be cautious of the FODMAP content in wheat flour options._
* 1-2 tsp of **Herbs & Spices** of choice - _good options here include ground cumin, smoked paprika powder, dried oregano, dried chives._
* 1 egg, beaten
* A splash of **Milk or Water** - _this is optional and may not be required - follow the method and if you find your batter is very dry, you can add a splash of liquid._ 

###### Method:

1. Place the grated zucchini in a muslin cloth and squeeze off as much of the excess water as possible.
2. Place all ingredients in a large bowl and mix with a wooden spoon until fully combined.
4. Take a scoop of batter and shape into round fritters using an egg or pancake shaper or for a more rustic style simply shape with a spoon - they will be equally if not even more delicious with jagged and irregular edges which crisp up nicely! 
5. Heat a nonstick pan over a medium high heat, add a tbsp of your preferred cooking oil - I use olive oil. Once the oil is at temperature, lower the heat a little and add your fritters to the pan and cook until crispy, golden brown and cooked right through - generally no more than 2-3 minutes per side, depending on the thickness of your fritter.
6. Can be eaten on their own, with a dollop of cottage cheese, a sweet chilli sauce or a hot sauce, depending on your preference! 

The important thing is to serve immediately and enjoy - Bon appetit!
