easter dinner: courgette and potato fritters

once again, i got a little distracted while these were in the oven...

1 large courgette, grated
2-3 large potatoes, grated
handful of fresh basil, chopped
salt and pepper
lemon. zested and juiced
splash of oil for frying

place grated potato and courgette in a tea towel and squeeze out as much moisture as you can.
mix courgette, potato, basil, lemon, salt and pepper.
form into palm sized patties and fry on both sides until browned.
place on a baking tray and bake for the last 30-45 minutes of the lamb's time.
crank the oven up to 200C/395F to crisp up the fritters for 10 minutes while the lamb rests.
