Zucchini Parmesan Cheese Fritters Recipes

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:

• In a saucepan over medium high heat add zucchini and water. Let steam for 5 minutes, or until slightly tender.
• Drain the zucchini and let cool in a medium mixing bowl.
• Once cool add Parmesan cheese, egg, flour, minced garlic, salt, and lemon to a bowl and mix until the mixture has a semi-creamy texture.
• Place a large pan over medium-high heat and add vegetable oil.
• Use a spoon to scoop out medium dollops of mixture and place it in the pan. Let cook on each side for about 3 minutes, or until golden brown.
• Remove from pan and place on paper towel to absorb excess oil.
• Enjoy!

Steps:

• Remove the ends of the zucchini and, if they are large, cut in half lengthwise. Slice the zucchini diagonally in 1/2-inch slices. Heat 2 tablespoons of olive oil in a large (12-inch) saute pan and add the onions. Cook for 10 minutes on medium-low heat, until they start to brown. Add half the zucchini, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon pepper to the pan and cook, tossing occasionally, for 10 to 15 minutes, until just cooked through. Sprinkle with Parmesan and cook for 30 seconds more. Remove to a serving platter and repeat with the rest of the zucchini. Serve immediately.
• Note: If you cook too much zucchini in one pan, you end up steaming rather than sauteing it. I prefer to cook it in 2 batches.

Steps:

• Mix sour cream and grated Parmesan until blended; refrigerate until ready to use. Combine all remaining ingredients except oil.
• Heat 1 Tbsp. oil in large skillet on medium-high heat. Add 2 Tbsp. vegetable mixture to skillet; repeat 6 times to make a total of 7 fritters. Flatten each slightly with back of spatula; cook 2 to 3 min. on each side or until golden brown on both sides.
• Remove fritters from skillet; drain on paper towels. Transfer to ovenproof plate; place in oven to keep warm until ready to serve. Repeat with remaining oil and vegetable mixture.
• Serve with sour cream mixture.

Steps:

• Combine the eggs, flour, milk, Parmesan and lemon zest. Season with salt and pepper and add parsley mixing well.
• Add the zucchini and set aside.
• Warm the oil and place spoonfuls of zucchini batter in the oil until nice and golden.
• Do this in batches so you do not lower the temp in your oil.
• Carefully remove from oil your finished zuch's and drain on paper towels.

Steps:

• Shred the zucchini squash on a box shredder (large side) or with a mandolin.
• In a medium bowl, mix the salt and water and allow the shredded zucchini to soak in the refrigerator for up to 45 minutes.
• In another medium bowl, mix the chopped parsley, minced garlic, and lemon zest. Drain, rinse, (cold tap water) and redrain the zucchini -- pat it dry with paper towels and add to the parsley mixture.
• Season the mixture with the table salt and pepper, then add in the beaten eggs and carefully stir in the flour to make a batter.
• In a medium-sized no-stick skillet, over medium-high heat, bring the olive oil up to temperature until you see some rippling. Then spoon in heaping tablespoons of the zucchini batter. Make about three per batch -- each one, after being mashed down a bit with a spatula should be about three inches across. Cook for about one minute per side (until golden brown) before turning.
• Place finished patties on paper towels to drain while finishing the remaining patties.
• Serve with lemon wedges as garnish, on the side.
