- Grate the carrot and courgette together onto a chopping board
- Crack the egg into a bowl, add flour and beat together. Stir in the grated vegetables, sweetcorn and broccoli and add enough milk to create a soft consistency.
- Heat a frying pan, adding a couple of drops of oil or cooking spray and drop a heaped spoonful of the mixture into the pan and spread with the back of a spoon to create a fritter. Spoon in a few more and leave a gap between each one.
- Cook over a medium heat for 2-3 minutes on each side or until crisp and golden brown. Transfer to a plate lined with kitchen paper.
