Courgette fritters are a delicious and versatile dish, often found in Mediterranean and Middle Eastern cuisines. Made primarily with grated courgette (zucchini), flour, eggs, and flavorful seasonings such as garlic, dill, or parsley, they are lightly pan-fried to create a golden, crispy exterior with a soft, tender center. Courgettes are rich in vitamins A and C, potassium, and antioxidants, making these fritters a flavorful way to incorporate vegetables into your diet. While the frying process adds unhealthy fats, using olive oil or baking as an alternative can make them lighter and more heart-healthy. Courgette fritters can be served as an appetizer, side dish, or paired with dips like tzatziki for added nutrition and taste. Their simplicity and variety in preparation make them a delightful addition to any meal, celebrating fresh, seasonal produce while offering a satisfying texture and flavor.
