Not too many ingredients, and yes, lots of goodness, this is a quick way to get your fussy ones to down those veggies happily. You never know, they might even ask for more!

Ingredients

  • Courgettes, finely grated- 3 medium
  • Eggs, beaten - 2
  • Flour- 2 tbsp heaped

  • Chilli powder- 1/4 tsp (opt chilli flakes)

2. Heat a pan. Pour in some oil and when the oil is hot, heap a tablespoonful of the mixture onto the pan.

3. Fry on medium heat, as the eggs in the mix need to cook. After about 3 minutes, flip over and fry the other side.

4. Excellent for breakfast or an after school snack.  Or even when guests come a-visiting!
