Heat the oven to 220°c (200 fan/ 425F/ Gas 7) and line a large baking sheet with baking paper.
Place the grated courgette (excess water removed) into a large bowl.
Add all of the other ingredients and mix well. You might find using your hands easier.
Shape the mixture into 6 burgers (or alternatively 20 falafels) and place on the baking sheet.
Bake in the oven for 25-30 minutes, turning halfway.
Notes
For a vegan version, replace the egg with ground flax seed (1 tablespoon of flax to 3 tablespoons of boiling water = 1 egg), omit the Parmesan and use a vegan style feta cheese (available in most large supermarkets). If you can't find vegan feta, use capers instead, to give the burgers that salty flavour.Freezing: The burgers are suitable for freezing, either cooked or uncooked. If freezing un-cooked, open freeze the burgers for 2 hours, then pop the uncooked frozen courgette burgers into a freezer-proof bag or container. They can be cooked straight from frozen, you will just need to add an additional 5-10 minutes onto the cooking timeNutrition: The nutritional information provided is approximate and is calculated using online tools.
