Crispy Zucchini Fritters
Ingredients
  • 1 1/2 pounds zucchini, grated
  • 3/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1 large egg, beaten
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • kosher salt and ground black pepper to taste
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
Instructions
1
Combine the zucchini and salt in a large container with drainage, such as a colander, to allow excess moisture to escape for 10 minutes.
2
Transfer the zucchini to the center of a piece of cheesecloth, then wrap it tightly around the vegetable and gently press to remove as much liquid as possible.
3
In a separate bowl, whisk together the flour, Parmesan cheese, egg, and garlic until well combined. Gradually add the zucchini to the mixture, stirring until it's fully incorporated and seasoned with kosher salt and pepper.
4
Heat a generous amount of olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.
5
Working in batches, use a spoon to drop small portions of the zucchini mixture into the hot skillet and cook until golden brown, about 2 minutes per side.
6
Serve the fried zucchini immediately and indulge in its delicious flavor!
