Sloppy mess. Still cooking 20 minutes later. I think the recipe misses a step or something.

Salt the grated courgettes. Leave for 15 minutes. Squeeze out excess moisture. Carry on with the recipe.

Mine were sloppy but I coped by frying them for long enough to take some shape. I think the flavour was very pleasant as I added a crushed garlic glove, some smoked paprika and dried parsley (just what I had in the cupboard).

I doubt if anyone would say this is the greatest recipe on BBC GF but it's nothing like as awful as some the comments claim. I followed the recipe exactly except that I cooked the fritters for five minutes on each side. It's essential to remove as much liquid as possible from the grated courgettes -…

These are grim. Trying Nigella next time.

I was unsure whether to try these fritters because of the negative comments…. I’m glad I did, they were delicious.

Mine turned out pretty good.. I added some herbs and seasoning and some porridge oats to the batter mixture and cooked like like drop scones.
