Zucchini Fritters

I’m always looking for new ways to sneak in some veggies in my daily meal. This dish is the perfect example of a healthy and low-calorie meal. Making these fritters are unbelievably easy, and a perfect way to get a healthy portion of veggies.

When we heard the word “fritter” only a word comes in our mind, which is heavy or deep-fried food, but these zucchini fritters are as light and delicate as it can be. Shredded zucchini is combined with flour, onion, pepper, egg, and, cilantro, and then sauteed in very less amount of the oil until crisp/golden brown on the exterior and tender on the interior. The egg is totally optional for this recipe If you want to make it vegan. You can substitute egg with the zucchini water to make your batter soften if it requires.

The best part is that you can serve them as a snack, an appetizer, or even a light dinner. I love them best as a light vegetarian snack with some hot coffee or tea in the evening.
