- Chop or grate the courgette into a bowl, add a pinch of sea salt and leave to one side.
- Put the egg whites into a bowl, add a pinch of salt and whisk until light and fluffy.
- Remove the core of the roasted bulb of garlic and squeeze the flesh into the egg whites like a tube of tooth paste.
- Scoop the courgette into your hands and squeeze out as much liquid as you can then add to the egg whites, followed by the flour, chopped mint and lemon zest.
- Season with a little black pepper and using a metal spoon carefully stir together.
- Heat a pan with the vegetable oil to about 5cm deep.
