FOR 4 PEOPLE

Ingredients 

16 courgette (zucchini) flowers

3 eggs

Beat the eggs with the flour and the chopped marjoram and refrigerate for 1 hour.

Clean the flowers from the pistils and stuff them with a slice of fontina cheese and a small piece of ham; fold the petals to seal them.

Put the frying pan on the stove.

Add the salt and pepper to the batter, dip the flowers and then transfer them, when the oil is at frying temperature, to the pan.
