Step:

  1. Take handfuls of the grated courgette and squeeze out as much excess liquid as possible by squeezing it between your hands really hard over the sink or an empty bowl. Then lay it out on a chopping board or tray and press down pieces of kitchen towel to remove even more liquid.

  2. Add the dried courgette into a large mixing bowl and season with salt and pepper. Only use a very tiny bit of salt or none at all if making for an infant.

  3. Add in the flour, eggs, and chopped spring onion and combine everything together using a wooden spoon. Next add in the grated cheese, stir again until incorporated.

  4. Set the batter aside and heat the oil in a large frying pan until really hot. Turn the heat down a touch once the oil is sizzling then using a silicon spoon and tbsp gently spoon in some batter, then using the back of the tbsp, flatten it out into a neat circle as it begins frying.

  5. Fry for a few minutes on each size until golden and crisp on the outside and cooked through. Flip using a spatula. Once cooked leave them to cool on some greaseproof paper or kitchen towel to remove any excess oil.

  6. Either serve up once a little cooled, or batch freeze them for defrosting and using another day, perfect for blw as a tasty lunch or dinner. :)
