Ingredients
  

  • 1 kl Zucchinis (washed, trimmed and grated)
  • 250g haloumi cheese (coarsely chopped)
  • 1 large Egg (lightly beaten with a little salt and pepper)
  • 50g baby spinach (roughly chopped)
  • 6 mint leaves (finely chopped)
  • 3 tsp Olive oil

Instructions
 

  • Preheat oven to 180°C.
  • Place the grated zucchini in a clean tea towel and bring up the corners to form a sack.
  • Twist the sack around until you have squeezed most of the liquid out.
  • Place zucchini in a bowl with the cheese, egg, spinach and mint.
  • Stir gently to combine.
  • Heat the oil in the pan over medium heat for 2 minutes
  • Place 4 egg rings at a time in the pan and pour 1/2 cup of mixture into each ring.
  • Pat down with the spatula to evenly spread the mixture.
  • Cook for 3 minutes on one side. Remove the rings, flip the fritters over and continue to cook for a further 2 minutes.
  • Keep warm on a baking tray lined with the Baking Sheet or BBQ Sheet while you cook the remaining mixture.
  • Serve warm with the dressed salad leaves.

Notes

Try serving with a dollop of Greek yoghurt flavoured with a teaspoon of lemon juice and 2 teaspoons of finely chopped mint.
