Ingredients

  • 500 g Courgette (2 medium courgettes/zucchinis)
  • 2 tbsp Cornflour (corn starch)
  • 60 g Breadcrumbs
  • 1 tsp Mixed Italian herbs
  • 2 tbsp Italian grated hard cheese I used a vegetarian Pecorino
  • 1 Egg large
  • Salt & pepper to taste

Instructions

  • Pre-heat your oven to 200C Fan/425F/Gas Mark 7, and line a baking tray with greaseproof paper. I don't recommend using foil as the courgette fries can stick to it
  • Cut the ends off the courgette and chop them into sticks/wedges
  • Place the courgette into a bowl and add the cornflour, stir together to fully coat the courgette
  • In another bowl, mix together the breadcrumbs, mixed herbs, pecorino, salt and pepper
  • In a third bowl, beat the egg
  • Using one hand, dip a courgette stick in the egg and fully coat it. Then place it into the bowl of breadcrumbs
  • Use your other hand to toss the courgette stick in the breadcrumbs, then place it on the baking tray
  • Continue until all of the courgette is coated in breadcrumbs
  • Bake for 20 minutes, or until golden and crispy
  • Serve immediately with your favourite sauces or condiments
