These zucchini fritters are easy to make and perfect as a light lunch, side dish, or appetizer. They're crispy on the outside and tender on the inside.
Directions
Step 1
Place the grated zucchini in a colander and sprinkle with salt. Let it sit for 10 minutes.
Step 2
Squeeze out as much moisture as possible from the zucchini using a clean kitchen towel or paper towels.
Step 3
In a large bowl, combine the zucchini, egg, flour, green onion, garlic, and black pepper. Mix well until combined.
Step 4
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.
Step 5
Scoop tablespoons of the zucchini mixture into the skillet and flatten them slightly with a spatula.
Step 6
Cook the fritters for 3-4 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and crispy.
Step 7
Transfer the fritters to a paper towel-lined plate to drain any excess oil.
Step 8
Serve warm with your favorite dipping sauce or as a side dish.
