Zucchini Fritters

Calories 62kcal

Ingredients

  • 1/2 Zucchini
  • 1/3 cup All-purpose flour (more if you have a big zucchini!)
  • 1 Egg beaten
  • 1/2 tsp Salt
  • 2 tbsp Extra-virgin olive oil

Instructions

  • Cut zucchini into 1/4 inch slices and lay them in layers out on a plate.
  • Lightly sprinkle the cut zucchini slices with salt before you add another layer.
  • Leave them for 5-7 minutes so that they become well salted and slightly pickled.
  • In the meantime, put some flour onto a plate or a shallow bowl. Also whisk one egg into another shallow bowl and add a pinch of salt to the egg.
  • Coat the zucchini slices with flour on both sides and set aside.
  • Heat about 2 tablespoons of oil in a large frying pan over medium-high heat. Make an assembly line of the flour coated zucchinis -> beaten egg -> pan. Dip each floured zucchini piece into the egg, coat it fully and then place it in the frying pan.
  • When both sides are nicely browned, remove them to a paper towel to drain any excess oil. Season with salt and serve.
