Instructions

  1. In a large bowl grate the zucchinis, using a box grater.
  2. Add the remaining ingredients and stir everything well until you have a nice and thick mixture.
  3. Cover the bottom of a non-stick frying pan with one finger of olive oil and one finger of frying oil (such as canola). Heat over high heat on an electric stove or medium-high heat on gas.
  4. Once the oil gets really hot, take a spoonful of the mixture and carefully add it to the hot oil. They don't need to be perfectly round, just toss in as-is to create nice and crispy edges. Add 5-6 fritters at a time and flip them after about 3 minutes. Cook for another 3-4 minutes or until deep golden in color.
  5. Transfer on paper towels to drain excess oil and proceed on cooking the next batch.
  6. Serve warm along with your favorite dip!
