Need Ideas for a Low-Carb Lunch?
Zucchini fritters are the kind of meal that feels light but is still satisfying. Crispy on the outside, tender inside, and full of fresh flavor, they’re perfect for a quick lunch that tastes like something from a café. Serve them with a simple salad, a dollop of yogurt, or a squeeze of lemon, and you have an easy, beautiful meal.
Ingredients
Method
- Grate the zucchini and place it in a bowl. Sprinkle with salt and let it sit for 10 minutes to draw out the moisture.
- Using a clean kitchen towel or paper towel, squeeze out as much liquid as possible. This step is important for crispy fritters.
- In a large bowl, combine the drained zucchini, green onions, garlic, egg, flour, Parmesan, and pepper. Mix until evenly combined.
- Heat a thin layer of olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. Scoop small portions of the mixture into the pan and flatten them slightly with a spatula.
- Cook each fritter for about 3 minutes per side, or until golden brown and crisp. Transfer to a paper towel to remove excess oil.
- Serve warm with a spoonful of Greek yogurt, sour cream, or lemon wedges.
