Vegetable Fritters Recipe

Ingredients:

  • 2 cups grated zucchini
  • 1 large carrot, grated
  • 1 small onion, finely chopped
  • 2 cloves garlic, minced
  • 1/2 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1 large egg, beaten
  • 1/4 cup chopped fresh parsley
  • 1/4 cup chopped fresh dill
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • Olive oil, for frying

Instructions:

1. Prepare the Vegetables:

Begin by placing the grated zucchini in a clean kitchen towel. Squeeze out as much moisture as possible—this step is essential to achieve fritters that are crispy, not soggy.

2. Combine the Ingredients:

In a large mixing bowl, combine the grated zucchini, grated carrot, chopped onion, minced garlic, grated Parmesan cheese, all-purpose flour, beaten egg, chopped parsley, and chopped dill. Season with salt and pepper to your taste. Stir until all ingredients are thoroughly mixed.

3. Shape the Fritters:

Using your hands, take a portion of the mixture and form it into a small patty. Repeat this process with the remaining mixture.

4. Heat the Oil:

In a large skillet, heat a generous amount of olive oil over medium-high heat.

5. Fry the Fritters:

Carefully place the vegetable patties into the hot oil. Fry them for approximately 3-4 minutes on each side, or until they are golden brown and crispy. It may be necessary to cook them in batches to avoid overcrowding the skillet.

6. Drain and Serve:

Once the fritters are cooked, transfer them to a plate lined with paper towels to drain any excess oil.

Serve the fritters warm, accompanied by a dip of your choice, such as sour cream, tzatziki, or a spicy yogurt dip. Enjoy the delightful combination of flavors and textures in these crispy vegetable fritters!
