150 g Greek feta,   crumbled

½ cup self-raising flour

2 eggs, lightly beaten

Coarsely grate zucchini and pumpkin. Using your hands, squeeze out excess moisture. Place in a large bowl with feta, flour, eggs and chives. Season with salt and pepper. Mix until well combined.

Heat 1 tbsp of the oil in a large non-stick frying pan (shop the best ones here) over a medium heat. Add ¼ cup of the zucchini mixture. Smooth out to form  an even circle. Repeat to make another three fritters.

4.Serve fritters warm with salad.
