Stuffed courgette flowers recipe

My courgette plant has been giving a bit of flowers recently. Here is link on Growing CourgetteIt’s end of season. I have decided to cook them by making some stuffing for them. I just nomally coat them in flour and then just pan fry them.

After making some chinese wontons (ravioli) the other day I had some stuffing leftover and I decided to put in the courgette flowers. they taste quite crisp and refreshing. If there is any left over just turn them into pork meatballs or patties. Just dip the patties into flour and some egg white or yolk. then dip them onto some breadcrumbs.

Courgette flowers about 5-10, washed and clean

1/2 carrot, chopped finely
2 stalks spring onion, slice thinly
