Zucchini Fritters (Printable Version)
# What You'll Need:
→ Main Ingredients
01 -
4 cups grated zucchini
02 -
2/3 cup plain flour
03 -
2 large eggs, slightly beaten
04 -
1/3 cup chopped scallions (green and white bits)
05 -
2 tablespoons olive oil
→ Optional Toppings
06 -
Sour cream
# Steps to Follow:
01 -
Throw the grated zucchini in a colander over a bowl and sprinkle some salt on it. Let it sit for 10 minutes. Squeeze out all the water you can with your hands, then dump it in a big bowl.
02 -
Throw in the flour, eggs, chopped scallions, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and 1/8 teaspoon pepper with the zucchini. Mix it all up good. Grab a plate and cover it with paper towels.
03 -
Warm up the olive oil in a big pan on medium heat. When it's hot, drop 3-tablespoon chunks of the zucchini mix into the pan, flatten them gently into circles about 2 inches apart. Cook them for about 2 to 3 minutes, flip them over, and cook another 2 minutes till they're golden. Move them to your paper towel plate and add a bit of salt.
04 -
Keep scooping and cooking until all the zucchini mix is gone. Eat them while they're hot, topped with sour cream and extra scallions if you want.
# Additional Tips:
01 -
Make sure you measure your zucchini before squeezing the water out.
02 -
These taste best right away, but you can keep leftovers in the fridge for 2 days or freeze them for up to 3 months.
03 -
To make them crispy again, warm them up in an oven, air fryer, or hot pan.
