Experimental Cookery 2022: Ricotta Fritters, Tomato Sauce & Courgette Salad

This was taken from "Jamie's 15 Minute Meals", and was another attempt at finding a vegetarian meal to add to our repertoire. Unlike many of the 15 Minute Meals, this one seemed to actually be close to the 15 minutes - very often, that book requires a whole load of preparation or ingredient gathering that somehow isn't included in the total; that seemed very much reduced here. The effort was also reasonable, with no need to try to multitask doing six things at the same time, as is sometimes the case with that book.

The upshot is that this was a very good meal on the preparation front. But how was it on eating?

Well, it was fine. We enjoyed it, we'd both have it again, but... It wasn't a world-beater. This is probably an ideal seventh dish for our set of six really good ones - it's good for a change, but I suspect we'd get tired of it before too soon.

And that's about that - this was fine, we would have it again, but it wasn't a revelation.
