Instructions
- Heat a thin layer of cooking oil in a skillet over medium-high heat.
- Shred the zucchini and place into a large colander. Wrap the shredded zucchini in a thin kitchen towel. Squeeze and twist over the sink to drain as much water as possible.
- In a mixing bowl, combine the shredded zucchini, egg, flour, ricotta cheese, parmesan cheese, chives, parsley as well as salt and pepper to taste. Stir to combine well.
- Drop large tablespoons of the zucchini mixture into the heated oil in the skillet. Cook for 2-3 minutes on each side until golden brown and crispy on the outside.
- Remove the fritters from the oil, and place on a towel lined plate to drain and cool.
- Serve with your favorite dipping sauce.
Dill Sauce
- Make the dill sauce by mixing the yogurt, lemon juice, garlic, and dill together. Season with salt and pepper to taste.
