Ingredients

  • 8 ounces zucchini
  • 1 teaspoon salt
  • 8 ounces carrots
  • 1 egg
  • 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
  • 2 tablespoons chives chopped
  • salt and pepper
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil

Instructions

  • Shred the zucchini on a box grater or in a food processor. Add salt, mix and let sit for about 10 minutes.
  • Squeeze as much liquid out of the zucchini as you can. Use your hands or a kitchen towel. Discard the liquid.
  • Grate carrots on a box grater or in a food processor and add to the zucchini.
  • Add egg, flour, baking powder, chopped chives and some salt and pepper to taste and combine.
  • Form equal patties of the mix and heat oil in a skillet.
  • Place about 4 patties in the oil and pan-fry for 3-4 minutes on each side. Do the same with the other 4 patties.
  • Serve the Zucchini Carrot Fritters with a dollop of creme fraiche, sour cream or drained yogurt.

Notes

  1. Grate the vegetables coarse; it will give more flavor and texture to the fritters.
  2. This recipe will make about 8 patties, but of course you can make them thicker or thinner. Make sure you adjust the pan-frying time.
