Pumpkin and Zucchini Fritters

These are straight from Yiayia's! These are called something I can't pronounce, but just know they're authentic...she was watching me the entire time haha!

Serves4-6 (makes around 30 fritters)Prep30 minutesCook25 minutesTotal55 minutes + 10 minutes resting

ingredients

350g Of Raw Pumpkin, peeled and roughly chopped
3 Medium Zucchinis, grated
2 Brown Onions
1 Garlic Clove – Crushed
1 Small Carrot
Handful Of Parsley
130g feta
1 tsp salt
1 tsp. Pepper
5 Mint Leaves
3 Eggs
2/3 Cup Breadcrumbs
2/3 Cup Of S/R Flour
Olive oil, for cooking

method

Transfer the grated zucchini to a cloth and squeeze out any excess water.
Add pumpkin, onion, carrot, parsley and garlic into a food processor and blend until each ingredient is in small pieces (almost like the zucchini).
Transfer into a large mixing bowl.
Add feta, salt, pepper, mint leaves, eggs, breadcrumbs and SR flour. Mix thoroughly.
Form mixture into small balls and then flatten into patties. This may be fiddly, but as soon as they're on the pan they will form.
On a large non stick pan, Splash olive oil and heat over a medium to high heat.
Add 5 or 6 fritters at the same time and using a fork, turn when they're lightly golden brown. Cook until golden on both sides and cooked through.
Leave to cool for 10 minutes before serving.
