  • 1 Tbsp sesame oil

  • 1 Tbsp maple syrup

  • 1 tsp dried chilli flakes

Directions

  • Grate the courgettes and red onion. Let drain for 10 minutes in a sieve then squeeze out any remaining liquid.
  • In a pan, melt 1 tablespoonful of coconut oil and sauté the courgette, onion, and garlic for 5 to 10 minutes. Remove from heat and allow to cool.

  • Add the courgette mixture to the flour mixture, along with the chilli, oat milk, flax seeds, coriander, and juice of 1 lime. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Melt the remaining coconut oil in a pan. Form the mixture into patties, place in the pan, and cook over medium-high heat for 5 to 7 minutes. Turn and cook the other side, until brown and crispy.
  • Place the peanut butter in a bowl and add the soy sauce, sesame oil, and maple sauce. Stir until creamy and smooth.
  • Add the dried chilli flakes, remaining lime juice, and spring onion and stir. Add the water for a thinner consistency.
  • Drizzle the peanut sauce over the fritters and serve.
