Halloumi And Zucchini Frittata Food

ZUCCHINI AND HALLOUMI FRITTERS

Steps:

• Coarsely grate the zucchini and squeeze out as much liquid as possible in your hands.
• Combine the zucchini with the spring onion, haloumi, flour, eggs and dill, and season well with salt and freshly ground black pepper.
• Heat the oil in a large, heavy-based, preferably non-stick pan, form fritters from the mixture (by using heaped teaspoons full of the mixture for each fritter), and cook in batches for 2 minutes each side, or until golden and firm; and drain on paper kitchen towels.
• Cut each slice of lemon into quarters or eighths, depending on the size of the lemons, so that one piece can be placed as a triangle on top of each fritter.
• Top each fritter with 1/2 a teaspoon of yoghurt, a triangular-shaped piece of lemon and a small sprig of dill.

FRITTATA WITH ZUCCHINI

Steps:

• Heat the oil in an 8- to-10-inch nonstick saute pan over medium heat. Add the shallots and zucchini and cook until just beginning to soften, 3 to 4 minutes.
• Meanwhile, beat the eggs with the milk. Add the Parmigiano and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Stir until combined.
• When the zucchini have softened, remove the pan from the heat and add the zucchini to the eggs. Stir to combine.
• Add the butter to the same pan and swirl to melt. Add the egg and zucchini mixture and top with the torn zucchini flowers if using. Cover the pan and cook over medium-low heat until the edges of the frittata begin to brown and the center has set and is puffed slightly, about 8 minutes.
• To serve, turn the frittata out onto a cutting board top-side-up. Slice and eat with Tuscan bread.
