Zucchini fritters with tahini sauce
Condiments, Dressings and Sauces
Excerpt
The zucchinis/courgettes are nearly over but the fritters are still a favourite. I serve them with this sauce or guacamole or salsa and alongside some baked potatoes or on top of brown rice. They're great stuffed into pita breads too for a portable lunch.
Thanks Rachel for this recipe.

- Preheat the oven to 180 degrees C / 350 degrees F
- Press into the sieve with a spatula to remove as much moisture as possible.

- Mix well to combine.
- Place tablespoons of the mixture on a baking sheet lined with baking paper or a silicone mat, flattening slightly to form fritter shapes.
- Bake for 15 minutes and turn over with a spatula. Continue baking for another 10-15 minutes.
- Whilst the fritters are baking prepare the tahini sauce by putting all the ingredients in a high-speed blender with ¾ cup hot water.
- Blend until smooth. Taste and add more water if you prefer a thinner sauce.
