Instructions

  1. Bring a pan of water to the boil, add the potatoes and simmer for 10–15 minutes until just tender. Drain and leave to cool.
  2. Meanwhile, coarsely grate the courgettes. Put in a large, clean tea towel and squeeze out most of the water. Set aside. Place the egg in a large bowl, add the courgette, mint, coriander, flour, lemon zest, chilli flakes and the cumin. Season and stir well.
  3. Crumble in the feta and fold through. Heat the oil in a large frying pan over a medium heat. Fry heaped tablespoons of the mixture for a few minutes each side until golden. Combine the potatoes with the tomatoes, leaves and spring onions and squeeze over the lemon juice. Serve alongside the fritters.
