Description

Freshen up your dinner repertoire with these tasty zucchini fritters and quinoa bowls. This healthier vegetarian meal is bursting flavour and colour.

Method

Step 1 of 5

Using a clean tea towel, squeeze out excess moisture from grated zucchini.

Step 2 of 5

Place chickpeas, cumin, coriander and garlic in a food processor and process until just combined. Transfer mixture to a large bowl and add grated zucchini, sesame seeds and flour. Stir to combine. Using damp hands, roll 1 1/2 tbs mixture into 12 balls, then flatten slightly to form a fritter.

Step 3 of 5

Heat oil in a large frying pan over medium heat. Cook fritters, in 2 batches, for 4 minutes on each side or until browned. Transfer to a plate and cover to keep warm.

Step 4 of 5

Meanwhile, place quinoa and 2 cups water in a large microwave-safe bowl. Cover and microwave on high for 5 minutes. Stir. Microwave on high for a further 2 minutes or until just tender. Stand for 5 minutes. Fluff with a fork to separate grains.

Step 5 of 5

Divide quinoa among bowls. Arrange zucchini ribbons, beetroot, radish, spinach and zucchini fritters over quinoa. Dollop with yoghurt and top with extra coriander. Season with pepper, then serve.
