Equipment

  • Mixing Bowl
  • Baking Sheets
  • Measuring Spoons
  • Wooden Spoon
  • Cheese Grater

Ingredients

  • 600 g Courgettes grated & excess water squeezed out.
  • 150 g Feta cheese crumbled
  • 2 Eggs
  • 1 Garlic Clove chopped
  • 1 Red Onion chopped finely
  • 1 tablespoon Mint chopped
  • 2 tablespoon Parsley chopped
  • 1 teaspoon Dried Oregano
  • 35 g Plain Flour
  • 100 g Panko Breadcrumbs
  • 2 tablespoon Grated Vegetarian Hard Cheese

Instructions

  • 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 time
