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:
- Prepare the Vegetables:
- Place the grated zucchini in a clean kitchen towel and squeeze out as much moisture as possible. This step is crucial to ensure the fritters are crispy and not soggy.
- Mix the Ingredients:
- In a large 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 taste. Mix well until all the ingredients are evenly combined.
- Form the Fritters:
- Take a handful of the mixture and shape it into a small patty. Repeat with the remaining mixture.
- Heat the Oil:
- In a large skillet, heat a generous amount of olive oil over medium-high heat.
- Fry the Fritters:
- Carefully place the vegetable patties in the hot oil. Fry for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until they are golden brown and crispy. You may need to do this in batches to avoid overcrowding the skillet.
- Drain and Serve:
- Once cooked, transfer the fritters to a plate lined with paper towels to drain any excess oil.
- Serve warm, and enjoy your delicious vegetable fritters!
Feel free to serve these fritters with a dip of your choice, such as sour cream, tzatziki, or a spicy yogurt dip. Enjoy!
