I love brunch over the weekend and it usually means a refuel between training sessions or just a general morale booster after a busy week!
My husband Mark loves halloumi and but is not so keen on vegetables so this is a compromise to incorporate the two!
The recipe only takes a few ingredients and you could serve with anything extra you fancy as part of a truly epic breakfast or brunch.
Courgette and Halloumi Fritters
Makes 7-8 fritters
(enough for 2 people)
Ingredients
225g block halloumi
1 courgette, grated

Freshly ground black pepper
Pinch of cayenne pepper
Rapeseed oil
Cherry tomatoes

Method
1- Pre heat the oven to 180°C
2- Drizzle oil into a baking tray, add cherry tomatoes, season with salt and pepper and shake the tomatoes in the tray to coat in the oil. Roast for 10-12 minutes.
