A little bit of mustard added to mince patties stops the heartburn/indigestion, so it may work for your's too.

I use cornflour for zucchini fritters, much lighter-if a high fat (hard) cheese , it might be a bit indigestible

Maybe indigestion? It could come from - over fertilized courgettes - too much cheese - additives to the corn - too much flour - or the gluten in it - too much baking powder - the chemicals in the artificial chicken flavouring (why would you add that anyway?) - the feta cheese - which was most likely an artificial cows milk cheese, not a goats or sheep milks cheese which feta is originally.
Lastly it could have been the terrible seed oil you fried them in instead of using lard or dripping or coconut oil - which would have been much better....

Are you suggesting that feta made from cow's milk is bad for digestion?Seriously??

Uli ~ I use to be a shocker at adding a pinch of chicken stock to just about every savoury dish until I was incredibley broke and couldn't afford the little "luxuries" and came to the conclusion that it had actually giving everything an artificial flavour!I'm a back to basics girl now thank goodness

I've not made feta, but I've looked at several methods on the web, and it seems that whether your preference is for feta made from goat's milk, ewe's milk or cow's milk, it's just that...a personal preference.
Nowehere did I discover that it can cause indigestion, but I am open-minded and prepared to accept that just about any food ingested might cause indigestion in some sensitive systems.
"GETTING TO KNOW THE FETA CHEESES:
The pungent, salty flavour of feta cheese is probably familiar to you. But this white, brine-pickled cheese comes in many styles and varies widely in taxture and flavour intensity, depending on where it's made and the kind of milk it's made from.
Each style has its advocates, and each works equally well in cooking. To find your favourite feta, sample several.
Where do they come from?
Though the name is of Greek origin, feta is made throughout the world. The types you're most likely to see are domestic, Bulgarian, and French. With a little sleuthing, you may also find fetas from Cyprus, Denmark, Hungary, New Zealand, Greece, and Romania.
Why do fetas taste different?
All fetas are salty and pungent. Those made from cow's milk tend to be the mildest and have the least complex range of flavours. They also feel drier in the mouth, with a slightly granular texture.
Fetas made from goat's or sheep's milk have a greater range of tastes. Sheep's milk kinds, in particular, have a sharper, more intense flavour than cow's milk fetas. Both sheep's and goat's milk fetas are consistently smoother and creamier than those made from cow's milk.
In tastings, we found that cheeses vary as much from maker to maker as from country to country. Before buying, it's a good idea to ask for a taste.
Domestic and Danish fetas are made primarily with cow's milk. In comparative tastings, domestic fetas rated as livelier, Danish as blander."
Google was my friend, and answered my question :)

That is right - she didn't. Which is why I said "could have been" - as most people use cheap canola or soy oil, but not everyone - hence the "could" .
