Instructions

  1. Pre heat your oven to 200 deg C.
  2. In a small pan, saute the finely diced onion and garlic in a little olive oil until it becomes translucent. Set aside to cool. Once the onion/garlic mixture has cooled add it with ALL THE INGREDIENTS in a large bowl.
  3. Using your hands combine the fritters mixture thoroughly. If you find that it's still a little wet add ¼ cup extra almond meal. (Don't be tempted to add too much)
  4. Form the mixture into small patties (grab a little in your hand and then flatten them out slightly) and place them on a baking tray lined with baking paper.
  5. Brush the tops of the fritters with a little olive oil and bake in the oven for 10 minutes. Take them out and using a spatula, carefully flip them over, brush the tops again with olive oil and finish cooking them for another 10 minutes.
  6. Once cooked allow them to cool slightly and serve them with a salad and some Greek yoghurt or tzatziki.

Notes

  • It's important to squeeze the excess water out of the grated zucchini-once grated you can sprinkle it with sea salt and leave it for a few hours.
  • If you're short on time- just grate it and squeeze as much as you can
