Can I freeze these fritters?

Yes! Let them cool completely, then store them in an airtight container in the freezer for up to 3 months. Thaw and reheat in the oven or a dry pan.

What if the batter is too wet?

If your courgette was extra juicy, the batter might be runny. Just add an extra tablespoon of flour to reach a thick, pancake-like consistency.

Do I need to peel the courgette?

No need! The dark green skin is full of nutrients and softens beautifully when cooked. Just wash it thoroughly before grating.
