Step 1

For the sauce mix the vinegar, soy sauce, sugar and a pinch of red pepper flakes in a small bowl. Stir until sugar is dissolved. Set aside.
For fritters place zucchini in a colander tossed with 1/2 tsp salt and let set for 10 minutes in sink. Wring out zucchini in a towel to get out the moisture. Place zucchini in a bowl and gently mix in the egg, flour, chives, and cornstarch. Season with salt and pepper.
