Ingredients
Serves: 4
- 225g grated courgette
- 2 eggs, beaten
- 4 tablespoons chopped onion
- 8 tablespoons plain flour
- 8 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese
- 8 tablespoons grated mozzarella cheese
- salt to taste
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil

- In a medium bowl, combine the courgette, eggs, onion, flour, Parmesan cheese, mozzarella cheese and salt. Stir well enough to distribute ingredients evenly.
- Heat a small amount of oil in a frying pan over medium-high heat. Drop courgette mixture by heaping tablespoonfuls, and cook for a few minutes on each side until golden.
Parmesan cheese
Parmesan cheese is not truly vegetarian, as it contains animal rennet. To make this dish 100% vegetarian, omit the cheese or find a suitable vegetarian substitute made without animal rennet. In supermarkets look for the 'parmesan style hard cheeses' which are suitable for vegetarians.
