• Heat half the oil and fry the courgettes in batches until golden; keep warm in a low oven. Heat a little more oil and cook 2 tbsp-portions of the fritter mix in batches for a couple of mins, until you see bubbles appear, then flip over and cook the other side until golden. Keep warm with the courgettes.
• Toss together the courgettes, feta, mint and sliced spring onions. Divide between 4 plates and top each with 2 fritters and a dollop of yogurt swirled with the remaining harissa.

SPICY CHICKPEA FRITTERS

Steps:

• INSTRUCTIONS.
• Wash chickpeas and pick over to remove foreign matter and discoloured chickpeas.
• Soak chickpeas in water for at least 4 hours (or overnight if possible).
• Place all dry ingredients in a large mortar & pestle and grind until well blended.
• Add fresh herbs to mortar and grind well.
• Add tomato paste and oil to mortar and mix well.
• Wash and drain chickpeas and place in food processor with onions and 150mls of cold water (or stock). Blend until well crushed but not to a paste.
• Add herb and spice mixture to processor and blend with chickpea mixture.
• Transfer chickpea mixture to a bowl and add eggs and grated parmesan cheese and mix well (beat eggs lightly before mixing through).
• Add flour and mix through until the mixture is thick but can still fall off the spoon (slightly runny). Then stand for about 30 minutes so flavours blend together.
• Spray frying pan with cooking oil and heat to medium heat.
• Place dollops of the mixture into the frying pan and cook both sides until golden, turning once only. (Cook in batches ensuring pan is wiped and re oiled between batches).
• For vegetarian use vegetable bouillon only or a vegetarian fake chicken flavor only.

SPICED CHICKPEA FRITTERS WITH GREEK SALAD, PITA & GARLICKY WHITE SAUCE

Steps:

• • Adjust rack to top position and preheat oven to 425 degrees. (TIP: If you have a toaster oven, feel free to skip preheating-you'll use it to warm the pitas in step 5.) Wash and dry produce. • Trim and halve cucumber lengthwise; thinly slice crosswise into half-moons. Dice tomato. Halve, peel, and thinly slice half the shallot; mince remaining shallot. Pick and roughly chop fronds from dill. Quarter lemon. Peel and mince or grate garlic.
• • In a small bowl, combine cucumber, tomato, sliced shallot, half the chopped dill, and half the feta (save the rest for serving). Stir in a drizzle of olive oil and a squeeze of lemon juice to taste. Season with salt and pepper. • In a separate small bowl, combine sour cream with a pinch of garlic to taste. Stir in water 1 tsp at a time until mixture reaches a drizzling consistency. Season with salt and pepper.
• • Drain and rinse chickpeas. Place in a medium bowl and mash with a potato masher or fork until almost smooth. (It's OK if there are still some larger chickpea pieces.) • In a large bowl, whisk together tempura mix, Shawarma Spice, salt (we used ¾ tsp; 1½ tsp for 4 servings), and 1/3 cup water until smooth. (For 4, use 2/3 cup water.) • Stir in mashed chickpeas, minced shallot, remaining garlic, and remaining chopped dill. Season with pepper. TIP: If mixture is too thick, add more water 1 TBSP at a time until it reaches a pancake-batter-like consistency.
• • Heat a 1/3-inch layer of oil in a large, heavy-bottomed pan over medium- high heat. Once oil is shimmering and hot enough that a drop of batter sizzles when added to the pan, carefully add heaping ¼-cup scoops of chickpea batter. TIP: Add your batter to the pan close to the oil to avoid splatter. You may need to cook fritters in batches. • Cook fritters until golden brown and crisp, 3-4 minutes per side. • Using a slotted spoon, carefully transfer fritters to a paper-towel-lined plate. Season with a pinch of salt. Turn off heat.
• • While fritters cook, warm pitas on top rack (use a baking sheet or place directly on oven rack) until pliable. Halve crosswise. TIP: You can use your toaster oven instead, if you have one. Keep an eye on the pitas as they warm-they should be soft, not crispy.
• • Divide fritters and salad (draining first) between plates. Top with remaining feta. Serve with pitas, sauce, and any remaining lemon wedges on the side. TIP: If you like, stuff pitas with fritters and salad, then drizzle with sauce for falafel-inspired sandwiches!

SPICY VEGETABLE FRITTERS

Steps:

• Pour oil to a depth of 3 to 4 inches into a deep-fryer or a large, heavy saucepan and heat over medium-high heat to 350F.
• (The oil should come no more than halfway up the sides of the pan.) While the oil is heating, prepare the batter.
• Combine the flour, 2 tsp oil, cumin, coriander, cayenne, garlic, salt, baking powder, and ajwain (if using) in a medium bowl.
• While stirring, gradually pour in enough water to make a batter of coating consistency.
• Working in batches, dip the vegetable pieces into the batter, letting the excess drip back into the bowl, then carefully lower the coated vegetables into the hot oil.
• Do not crowd the pan.
• Fry until golden brown, 2 to 3 minutes.
• Remove the fritters from the oil with tongs or a slotted spoon and drain on paper towels.
• Continue with the remaining vegetables, allowing the oil to reheat between batches as needed.
• Arrange the fritters on a warmed platter and serve immediately with chutney alongside for dipping.
