Sunday brought sunshine and a party in the park (more of which anon). By evening time we wanted something to nibble on but weren't quite up to a full dinner. I rustled up these cakes from Nigel Slater's Kitchen Diaries and they really hit the spot. I used the fine setting on my mandolin and the cakes held together well and were no problem to turn over.6 cakes - serves 2/3 depending on how hungry you are!!
500g courgettes
1 onion
1 clove garlic
3 tbsp plain flour
1 egg, beaten
150g feta, crumbled
small bunch dill
- grate the courgette thinly - using a mandolin is best
- place into a colander, sprinkle with salt and leave for 30 mins
- heat the olive oil and saute the onion and garlic
- squeeze the excess liquid from the courgette and add to the onion
- saute for 2-3 mins
- add the flour for 3-4 mins until cooked
- stir in the beaten egg, crumbled feta and dill
- season
- fry the cakes for 2-3 mins on each side until golden

A great summer supper!
I love these! I made them once and couldn't stop myself snacking on them as I went along. Very moreish...
Really tasty- I was only just looking for a recipe for them! Love the combo of dill and feta!
