Ingredients

Servings

Dipping Sauce

  • ½ cup sour cream
  • ½ teaspoon kosher salt
  • ¼ teaspoon black pepper freshly ground
  • ¼ teaspoon garlic salt
  • teaspoon cayenne pepper

Fritters

  • 2 large zucchini grated (about 4 cups), well-drained
  • 1 can corn kernel drained, 15.25 ounces
  • ½ small white onion grated, drained of liquid, or yellow onion
  • 1 teaspoon garlic minced
  • ½ cup mozzarella cheese shredded, 56.5 g
  • 2 large egg room temperature, beaten
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour 250 g
  • 1 teaspoon kosher salt
  • ½ teaspoon black pepper freshly ground
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil

Instructions

Dipping Sauce

  1. In a medium bowl mix sour cream, salt, pepper, garlic, and cayenne pepper. Store the dipping sauce in the refrigerator while cooking the fritters, or until ready to use.

Fritters

  1. Trim the ends off the zucchini and shred on a grater. Remove excess water from the zucchini by wrapping it in a paper towel or cheesecloth and tightly squeezing. You want to make sure to get as much moisture out of the zucchini as you can.
  2. To a large mixing bowl, add the drained zucchini.
  3. To the bowl with the grated zucchini, add drained corn, drained onion, garlic, cheese, eggs, flour, salt, and pepper. Mix well.
  4. To a large skillet over medium-low heat, add oil*. Once hot, use a 3-tablespoon scoop to add fritter batter to the pan in batches of 3 or 4, being careful not to overcrowd the pan. Flatten the tops so that each scoop is about 3 inches wide and as thick as a fluffy pancake.
  5. Cook the fritters for 5-6 minutes on each side, or until the fritters are a deep brown. Place the cooked fritters on a paper towel-lined plate to serve immediately. Repeat with the remaining batter.
  6. Serve fritters with the dipping sauce.

Notes

  • *Baking Instructions
  • Preheat the oven to 375°F. Line a baking sheet with aluminum foil and spray with nonstick cooking spray.
  • Scoop the batter onto the lined baking sheet, flattening them out a bit like when frying.
  • Bake the fritters for 15-20 minutes per side (a total of 30-40 minutes), or until they are golden brown.
  • Serve immediately, with or without the dipping sauce. Enjoy!
