These are utterly delicious and gorgeous! Gorgeous I tell you! They were much better than I had thought they would be and as ever, easy to make and easier to eat! The herbs really give the courgette balls a great flavour and could be served simply as a side dish with no sauce. I use coconut flour to help bind the balls because it acts like a piece of kitchen roll and soaks up any moisture, but another low carb flour such as almond flour could be used instead.
I served mine with a marinara sauce but they would be lovely just by themselves, or with a lemon butter over them. They could be a tasty starter or a lovely lunch with a side salad. Or a snack when you creep down to the refrigerator late at night…..

Hi I have noticed that you dont mention the amount of servings your recipies serve, is tehre a reason why?
Hi, not really…people’s portions can vary…they sit between the two and four people. If it is something that people would want, am happy to update.
