Ingredients

  • Zucchini

    Summer squash, includes skin, raw

    ¾ medium or 147g

  • Egg

    Whole, fresh eggs

    1 ½ medium or 66g

  • Oat flour

    Partially debranned

    23g

  • Tuna

    Fish, light, canned in water, drained solids

    143g

Directions

  1. Grate zucchini
  2. Place zucchini on a clean cloth or some paper towel and press the moisture out (you can also do this with salt, but, I didn't want to eat extra salt in my day, my other meals already covered that target haha)
  3. Once you've pressed most of the moisture out of the grated zucchini, transfer it to a bowl and add in an egg, oat flour, and 1 small tin of tuna (after draining). You can also now add in salt, pepper, or any of your other favourite spices that you think will work with the flavours.
  4. Divide the mix into 2 portions and create patties (fritters) out of them in your hand and place into a plan on a low heat. I recommend using spray olive oil on the pan rather than pouring in an oil or butter.
  5. Allow each side to cook for 3-5 mins, or until golden brown.
  6. I like to serve mine with low fat sour cream, avocado (with lemon pepper), and a side of spinach and cherry tomatoes.
