Zucchini Fritters

Healthy Fact of the Day

Zucchini is an excellent source of vitamin C, which supports a healthy immune system and aids in collagen production for glowing skin.

Ingredients

 

  • 2 medium zucchinis, grated
  • 1 egg, beaten
  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/4 cup grated parmesan cheese
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley
  • 1/2 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
  • Vegetable oil for frying

 

Instructions

  1. Squeeze out excess moisture from the grated zucchini using a clean kitchen towel or cheesecloth.

  2. In a large bowl, combine the grated zucchini, egg, flour, parmesan cheese, garlic, parsley, salt, and black pepper. Mix well until fully combined.

  3. Heat a large skillet or frying pan over medium heat and add enough vegetable oil to coat the bottom of the pan.

  4. Scoop out a heaping tablespoon of the zucchini mixture and gently drop it into the hot oil. Flatten slightly with a spatula.

  5. Fry the fritters for 2-3 minutes per side, or until golden brown and crispy.

  6. Transfer the cooked fritters to a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.

  7. Repeat with the remaining batter, adding more oil to the pan as needed.

  8. Serve hot with a dollop of yogurt or sour cream, if desired.

Enjoy these crispy and delicious zucchini fritters as a tasty and nutritious addition to your meal!

Tip of the Day

“Always let your meat rest before slicing.”

Whether you're roasting a chicken, grilling steak, or baking pork tenderloin, letting cooked meat rest for 5–10 minutes before slicing allows the juices to redistribute evenly. This simple step keeps your meat juicy and tender, ensuring every bite is flavorful and moist. Bonus: It gives you a moment to plate your sides or garnish for a perfect presentation!
