Recipe Description
Zucchini Parmesan Fritters are a delicious way to use up an over-abundance of zucchini and summer squash. These fritters are crispy on the outside. A dollop of sour cream perfectly compliments them.
Recipe Directions
-
Grate the zucchini sprinkle with the tsp of salt and set aside. ( the salt will draw the extra moisture out of the zucchini.
-
Mix together all of the rest of the ingredients and stir to mix.
-
Put the shredded zucchini in something that will let you squeeze all the extra liquid. A nut milk bag or cheesecloth works great. Add the zucchini to the rest of the ingredients and stir to mix.
-
Put a small amount of oil in a cast-iron skillet and fry until golden brown on both sides.
-
Alternately bake the Fritters on a sheet pan at 450 degrees for 20 minutes, or until browned and the centers are set.
-
Serve with a dollop of sourcream.
