Zero Waste Courgette and Halloumi Fritters
Top Tips:
These fritters are such a great way of using up leftover vegetables. Some leftover broccoli works great too or even a tin of sweetcorn or some carrots in the back of the fridge.
Also if you don’t have halloumi, some cheese leftover like a cheddar or a goats cheese would work really well.
Make a batch of these , then store any leftover cooked fritters for another day. Allow them to cool, place on a piece of parchment or baking paper, pop in a freezer bag. When needed de-frost and they can even be re-heated in the toaster.
