These savory zucchini fritters are a delightful twist on a classic recipe, perfect for a quick and tasty meal.
Grate the zucchini and carrot into a mixing bowl.
Squeeze out excess moisture from the grated zucchini to prevent soggy fritters.
Add the chopped green onion, diced green bell pepper, and minced garlic to the bowl.
Ensure the vegetables are evenly distributed for consistent flavor.
Mix in the flour, baking powder, salt, and pepper.
Sift the dry ingredients together before adding for a smoother mixture.
Beat the eggs and stir them into the mixture until well combined.
Ensure the eggs are fully incorporated to help bind the mixture.
Heat a nonstick skillet over medium heat and add a small amount of oil.
Use a neutral oil like canola or vegetable oil for frying.
Scoop portions of the mixture into the skillet, flattening them into patties.
Cook in batches to avoid overcrowding the skillet.
Cook each side for about 4-5 minutes until golden brown.
Adjust the heat as needed to prevent burning.
Serve the fritters warm with your favorite dipping sauce or garnish.
Pair with a dollop of sour cream or a sprinkle of fresh herbs for added flavor.
