Zucchini Fritters

by Anne Halsted

serves 4

4 cups grated zucchini
2 eggs, beaten
1½ tablespoons flour
¼ cup grated Parmesan cheese
salt and pepper to taste
2 tablespoons oil


Salt the grated zucchini and leave it in a colander for an hour or so. Then squeeze out as much water as possible. Zucchini will reduce to less than a cup when well squeezed!

Stir in beaten eggs, flour and Parmesan cheese. Add salt and pepper to taste.

Heat olive oil in a large non-stick skillet until hot. Add 1/4 cup dollops and fry until brownish on both sides. Serve immediately!

This is a great use for zucchini! Feel free to add onions, garlic, or whatever herbs you think will enhance. You can also garnish the fritters with salsa or tomato sauce.
