Delicious Zucchini Fritters

Ingredients

  • 2 cups grated fresh carrots
  • 1/2 cup yellow onion, minced
  • 2 tbsp butter
  • 2 cups shredded zucchini with excess water squeezed out
  • 4 eggs, beaten well
  • 1/2 cup cheese of your choice
  • 1/2 to 3/4 cup flour
  • Olive oil for frying
  • Salt, to taste
  • Pepper, to taste

Preparation

Step 1

Saute onion and carrots in butter until the onion is translucent. Meanwhile, beat together eggs, cheese and flour. Add the zucchini and the sauteed mixture.

Blend well. In a skillet, heat olive oil on medium heat until a drop of water dances in the oil. Add the fritter batter about three tablespoons at a time and fry until golden brown around the edges.

Much like potato fritters, zucchini fritters can be served with fresh applesauce as a side dish.
