Crispy Zucchini Fritters: A Crunchy and Flavorful Appetizer made with fresh zucchini, herbs, and spices. Perfect for parties, gatherings, or as a light snack, these fritters will impress everyone!


Ingredients

Scale
  • 2 medium zucchinis, grated
  • 1 cup all-purpose flour
  • 2 large eggs
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  • 1/4 teaspoon red pepper flakes (optional)
  • 1/4 cup fresh parsley, chopped
  • Vegetable oil, for frying

Instructions

  1. Grate the zucchinis and squeeze out excess moisture using a kitchen towel.
  2. In a bowl, combine grated zucchini, flour, eggs, Parmesan, garlic, salt, pepper, red pepper flakes, and parsley to form a thick batter.
  3. Heat vegetable oil in a skillet over medium heat. Scoop spoonfuls of the mixture into the skillet and fry for 3-4 minutes per side until golden brown.
  4. Transfer cooked fritters to a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil. Serve warm with your favorite dipping sauce.
