Zucchini Cheese And Herb Fritters Recipes

Steps:

• Make zucchini batter:
• Stir together zucchini and salt, then drain in a colander set over a bowl, 1 hour.
• Stir together zucchini and remaining fritter ingredients. Season well with freshly ground black pepper. Let mixture stand 15 minutes.
• Fry fritters:
• Heat enough of frying oils to measure 3/4 inch in a deep 12-inch heavy skillet over moderately high heat until a deep-fat thermometer registers 350°F.
• Spoon heaping tablespoons of fritter mixture into oils and fry in small batches without crowding, turning fritters, until golden brown, about 1 minute.
• Transfer fritters with a slotted spoon to paper towels to drain and return oil to 350°F between batches. Serve hot.

Steps:

• Toss zucchini, onion and salt in large colander. Let stand 1 hour; squeeze as dry as possible. Transfer mixture to large bowl. Mix in next 6 ingredients.
• Pour vegetable oil into heavy large saucepan to depth of 1 inch. Attach deep-fry thermometer to side of saucepan; heat oil over medium-high heat to 350°F. Working in batches, shape zucchini-onion mixture by tablespoonfuls into balls. Add to hot oil. Fry in batches until fritters are brown, turning once, about 3 minutes total. Using slotted spoon, transfer fritters to paper towels to drain. Transfer to platter. Serve with yogurt.

Steps:

• Combine zucchini and salt in a bowl and stir to combine. Set aside for 10 minutes. Pour mixture onto a clean dish towel or cheesecloth and squeeze to drain completely.
• Whisk egg in a bowl and add flour, Parmesan cheese, salt, and pepper. Stir in drained zucchini and mix well.
• Heat oil in a medium-sized pan over medium-high heat. Add batter by the tablespoon. Cook fritters until golden brown on both sides, about 5 minutes per batch. Transfer to a serving plate and sprinkle with Parmesan cheese and salt. Serve immediately with sour cream.

Steps:

• Squeeze all the excess liquid from the potato, zucchini, onion and garlic, and use paper kitchen towelling to further pat dry the potatoes, zucchini and onion. One method is to put the vegetables into a small colandar or sieve, place this on or over the sink and press down on the vegetables several times.
• Combine the potato, zucchini, onion, garlic, flour, egg, mint, basil, pepper and salt in a large bowl.
• Pre-heat the oven to hot. 220°C or 425-450°F or gas mark 7-8.
• Heat oil in a large, preferably non-stick pan, and shallow-fry level tablespoons of the mixture, until the fritters are browned on both sides, place on paper kitchen towelling to absorb excess oil then transfer the fritters to oven trays and bake uncovered for about 10 minutes or until they are crisped and cooked right through.
• Combine the yoghurt and extra mint.
• Serve the fritters immediately with the yoghurt and mint topping.
