Ingredients
Dipping Sauce
- ½ cup (115 g) sour cream
- ½ teaspoon kosher salt
- ¼ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
- ¼ teaspoon garlic salt
- ⅛ teaspoon cayenne pepper
Fritters
- 2 large zucchini, grated (about 4 cups), well-drained
- 1 can (15.25 ounces) corn kernels, drained
- ½ small white or yellow onion, grated, drained of liquid
- 1 teaspoon garlic, minced
- ½ cup (56.5 g) mozzarella cheese, shredded
- 2 large eggs, room temperature, beaten
- 2 cups (250 g) all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon kosher salt
- ½ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
Instructions
Dipping Sauce
- 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
- 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.
- To a large mixing bowl, add the drained zucchini.
- To the bowl with the grated zucchini, add drained corn, drained onion, garlic, cheese, eggs, flour, salt, and pepper. Mix well.
- 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.
- 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.
- 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!
