View the full article on guardian.co.ukFor the fritters
- 300g firm white fish fillets
- 300g courgettes
- 200g white spelt flour
- 3 eggs
- 0 Vegetable oil
- 0 ground white pepper
For the dipping sauce
- 2 tbsp soy sauce
- 1.5 tsp rice wine vinegar
- 0.5 tsp toasted sesame seeds
Step 1
Slice the fish into ½cm-thick slices, about 6cm long.
Step 2
Spread them out on a plate and season.
Step 3
On a separate plate, do the same with the sliced courgette.
Step 4
Put the flour and beaten egg into two separate bowls and position beside your stovetop.
Step 5
Add 1 tbsp vegetable oil to a large pan set over a medium heat.
Step 6
In batches, coat the fish and courgette slices in flour, then dip into the egg mixture, and transfer to the hot pan.
Step 7
Fry for 2 minutes on each side until golden, remove to a heatproof dish and keep warm while you fry the rest.
Step 8
Add more oil as you go, if needed.
Step 9
(Keep the heat at medium: if it is too high it will burn the outside before the inside is cooked; if the heat is too low you will end up with soggy fritters).
Step 10
In a bowl, combine the ingredients for the dipping sauce and serve immediately with the fish and courgette fritters.
