Rainbow veggie fritters (ZOE)

One of the best ways to nourish your gut microbiome is to eat a wide range of plants. These rainbow veggie fritters are a perfect recipe to pack in whatever veg you love or that needs using up in your fridge. By including different colours, you’re ensuring that you’re feeding your gut microbes with a wide range of different polyphenols, a type of plant defence chemical that acts as rocket fuel for your microbes, promoting the growth of good bacteria that play a key role in your overall health. It’s less of a recipe and more of a method that will vary a lot depending on the veggies you use but here’s a rough guide: Olive oil 1/2 a red cabbage 100g brussels sprouts 1 carrot 1 courgette 1 tin sweetcorn, drained 2 spring onions 1 red chilli Chickpea or gram flour (we used about 50g but it will depend on how watery the veg are) Salt and pepper to taste
