OLD SCHOOL VEGE FRITTERS

by Swiish Team

Recently, we’ve found ourselves spending a whole lot more time in the kitchen.  And since the celebration season is over and work is in full swing, most of that time has been geared towards creating healthy, minute-saving meals.  

We also decided to give some old faves a fresh kick by adding some modern flavours to the mix.  That’s where this little gem of a recipe came from – old school vego fritters with labne dukka dip.  You know those meals that just really hit the spot?  Yep, that’s what this.  Plus, it’s simple, quick and healthy.  Win!

  2. Grate the zucchini and mix with corn, egg yolks, flour and water, olive oil and salt-and-pepper. 

  3. Beat the egg whites with an electric beater until soft peaks form. 

  4. Fold egg whites gently into vegetable mixture.
