Serves 4-6 (12 fritters)
Level: EASY
TIME: Active – 20min Total- 25 min

Ingredients

● 2 cups shredded zucchini
● 2 cups shredded carrots
● 2 cloves garlic, minced
● 2/3 cup all-purpose flour
● 2 large eggs, lightly beaten
● 1/3 cup sliced scallions (green and white parts)
● 2 Tablespoons olive oil

Instructions

1. Place the shredded zucchini in a colander and sprinkle it lightly with salt. Let the
zucchini sit for 10 minutes then using your hands, squeeze out as much liquid as
possible.
2. Transfer the zucchini to a large bowl then add the carrots, garlic, flour, eggs,
scallions, 1/4 teaspoon salt, and 1/8 teaspoon pepper. Stir the mixture until it is
combined.
3. Line a plate with paper towels. Place a large sauté pan over medium-high heat
and add the olive oil. Once the oil is shimmering, scoop 3-tablespoon mounds of the
vegetable mixture into the pan, flattening the mounds slightly and spacing them at least
1 inch apart.
4. Cook the fritters for 2 to 3 minutes then flip them once and continue cooking them
an additional 1 to 2 minutes until they’re golden brown and crispy. Transfer the fritters to
the paper towel-lined plate, season them with salt and repeat the cooking process with
the remaining mixture.
