Description
You can prepare zucchini fritters in a slightly different way: grate the zucchini, salt it, and let it sit for 10 minutes. Then drain the resulting liquid and squeeze out the zucchini. Add dill, garlic, eggs, salt, pepper, and flour to the zucchini — mix the ingredients and cook the fritters.
Ingredients
- Garlic - 1 clove
- Young zucchini - 1 piece
- Herbs - 1 bunch
- Wheat Flour - 2 spoons
- Chicken Egg - 3 pieces
- Ground Black Pepper - to taste
- Salt - to taste
- Sour Cream - to taste
Step by Step guide
Step 1
Wash the herbs (dill or parsley), dry them, and chop finely.
Step 2
Peel and finely chop the garlic.
Step 3
Break the eggs into a deep bowl, add a pinch of pepper, and lightly whisk with a fork or whisk. Add the dill and chopped garlic, and whisk the egg mixture again lightly. Wash the zucchini, pat it dry, and grate it using a large grater.
Step 4
If the zucchini (or pattypan squash) is not young, be sure to remove the tough outer skin and scoop out the seeds.
Step 5
Add the grated zucchini to the egg mixture and stir well. Then add the flour and mix again thoroughly. It's best to salt the zucchini mixture just before frying, as otherwise the zucchini will release a lot of moisture, making the batter too watery.
Step 6
Spoon the zucchini mixture onto a preheated skillet with vegetable oil, forming small mounds.
Step 7
Gently press the pancakes with a spatula or spoon to flatten them and shape them as desired. Fry the pancakes over medium heat for 1–2 minutes until golden brown. Flip them over, reduce the heat, cover with a lid, and cook for another 3–4 minutes until the bottom is golden brown.
Step 8
Place the finished pancakes on a paper towel to absorb any excess oil.
Step 9
Serve the pancakes hot, with sour cream.
