Zucchini Fritters Recipe
A delicious go-to dinner, these fritters are unbelievably easy to make, highly nutritious, and the perfect way to add veggies into your diet.
Serves: 3-4
Prep time 15 mins
Cook time 10 mins
Ingredients
- 700g zucchini, grated
- 250g cooked rice
- 1 brown onion, diced
- 150g frozen peas, thawed
- 70g grated parmesan
- 1 tsp crushed garlic
- 1 tsp fresh or dried oregano
- ½ tsp ground nutmeg
- 125g plain flour
- 2 eggs
Method
- Add all ingredients to a large mixing bowl, mix well with your hands.
- Let mixture sit for one hour. The zucchini will release liquid and if the mixture becomes too wet, add a little flour to tighten it up.
- Form mixture into golf-ball sized balls.
- Heat a large frying pan over medium heat, add enough oil to cover the base of the pan.
- Lightly flatten the fritters and place gently in the pan.
- Cook the fritters in batches for 3-5 minutes each side or until golden, turning gently.
- Can be served hot or cold.
