"These fritters are very similar to bhajis or pakora, which are a delicious crispy vegetable snack or starter dish. The sun dried tomato dip has wonderful flavor and taste similar to a Spanish romesco type sauce."

Step by Step Method
Step 1
Using a box type grater, grate the zucchini and onion directly into a bowl, capturing all the juices released.
Step 2
Add the chickpea flour, paprika, parsley, chilli flakes and salt to the bowl and mix well until you have a firm, but sticky batter.
Step 3
Heat enough oil to deep-fry in a large heavy-based saucepan to 175˚C. Drop spoonfuls of the vegetable batter in batches, for 5 minutes, or until golden-brown and cooked through, transferring to a wire rack to cool; season with salt and pepper to suit taste.
Step 4
To make the sundried tomato dip, combine all the ingredients (except the oil) in a high-speed blender and blend to a smooth paste. Slowly add the oil until it reaches your preferred consistency. I like it a little chunky.
