Courgette fritters

Quick and easy recipe from a Serbo-Croatian friend, Gordana. She likes them for breakfast. I do too - I've added the Indian style variation

• Ready In: 5 mins
• Serves: 1-2
• Yields: 4 small fritters

Ingredients

• For one person

• 1  large egg
• 1  small courgette, grated
• 1 1⁄2 tablespoons flour
•  salt and pepper
•  oregano (or teaspoon ground cumin + coriander)
•  olive oil or   sunflower oil, for shallow frying

Directions

1. Add the egg to the grated courgette and mix.
2. Then add the remaining ingredients and mix.
3. There are two versions here, one a European one with added herbs: fresh Oregano, and one an Indian one with added spices: ground cumin and coriander.
4. The resultant mixture is then spooned into a frying pan with hot oil, flattened out into 3 or four small fritters and gently fried on both sides.
