Since it was raining all day, I had another stab at making zucchini potato fritters. The first thing to note is that all recipes must be halved, if not quartered. So, sorry, two medium zucchini and a large carrot are Far Too Much for one person. One onion and one medium potato was sufficient for that amount of carrot and zuke but three eggs was too much. The onion helped the flavour but the fritters were still pretty bland. I suspect you really need to add far more salt than I'm willing to, and that sautéing the onion would be even better. Cooking in a nonstick skillet doesn't really cook them: I ended up with a kind of okonomiyaki without the sauce. But I seriously don't want to fry in oil. These are supposed to conduce to healthy eating and deep frying is not that. Presumably something like HP sauce would help with the blandness, or worcestershire if you incline that way. Shall see which works best tomorrow because boy do I have a lot of zucchini fritters.

Rain stopped late afternoon so I got out for a prescription, as also a tensor bandage for my annoying left wrist that clicks and stabs at me. Physio thinks it's tendons rather than bones and I hope she's right. Tendons can be cortisoned into submission but arthritis cannot.
