Description

Deliciously crunchy zucchini fritters that are simple to make.


Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 cups grated zucchini, squeezed dry
  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
  • 2 large eggs, beaten
  • 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • Vegetable oil, for frying

Instructions

  1. In a large bowl, combine the grated zucchini, flour, beaten eggs, parsley, minced garlic, salt, and pepper. Mix well until all ingredients are incorporated.
  2. Heat about 1/2 inch of vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
  3. Drop spoonfuls of the zucchini mixture into the hot oil, flattening them slightly with the back of the spoon. Do not overcrowd the skillet.
  4. Fry for 3-4 minutes per side, until golden brown and crispy.
  5. Remove the fritters from the skillet and drain them on paper towels.
  6. Serve hot.

Notes

  • For extra crispiness, ensure you squeeze as much moisture as possible from the grated zucchini.
  • Serve with your favorite dipping sauce, such as sour cream or a garlic aioli.
