Combine all ingredients apart from the oil in a large bowl. Mix well. Heat enough oil to cover the bottom of a frying pan. I use an electric frying pan but any large pan will do. The oil needs to be quite hot. Drop a tablespoon of mixture in the pan and continue until there are about 6 or so spoonfuls cooking depending on the size of your pan. Don't crowd the pan. Lightly fry the fritters until they are golden and firm then turn - this will be a couple of minutes each side. Serve with your favourite dressing like lemon, parsley and yoghurt and a delicious salad.
