Cornmeal Zucchini Fritters Food

10-MINUTE ZUCCHINI & CORN FRITTERS

Steps:

• Place grated zucchini in the middle of a paper towel. Squeeze out as much of the moisture as you can.
• Place drained zucchini with all other remaining ingredients except oil in a medium bowl.
• Mix to combine everything.
• In a large skillet, warm your cooking oil over medium heat. Once the oil is hot, use a heaping tablespoon to portion the fritter batter into the hot pan.
• Cook for 2-3 minutes or until the fritter starts to turn golden brown. Flip, gently press down to flatten the fritter a bit and cook for another 2 minutes or until cooked through.
• Remove from pan and enjoy warm with sliced avocado, sour cream or dipping sauce of choice.

ZUCCHINI CORN FRITTERS

Steps:

• In a large bowl, stir together flour, baking powder, cumin, sugar, salt, and pepper.
• In a small bowl, whisk together eggs, milk, and butter. Whisk wet ingredients into dry ingredients. Stir in zucchini, corn, and cheese; mix well.
• Warm oil in a cast iron skillet over medium-high heat. Drop batter by the tablespoonful into hot oil. Fry until crisp and brown, turning once with tongs. Remove to paper towels.

ZUCCHINI-CORN FRITTERS

Steps:

• Toss the zucchini with 1/2 teaspoon salt in a medium bowl; let stand 10 minutes. Wrap the zucchini in a kitchen towel and squeeze dry.
• Meanwhile, heat the butter in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the onion and garlic and cook, stirring occasionally, until slightly softened, about 4 minutes. Add the corn and cook, stirring occasionally, until crisp-tender, about 3 minutes. Set aside.
• Whisk the cornmeal, flour, baking soda, 3/4 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper in a medium bowl. Whisk the buttermilk and egg in a large bowl, then stir in the corn-onion mixture and zucchini. Add the cornmeal mixture and stir until just combined.
• Wipe out the skillet the corn-onion mixture cooked in. Pour in about 1/8 inch vegetable oil and place over medium heat. Working in batches, scoop scant 1/4 cupfuls of the batter into the oil and use the back of the measuring cup to flatten the scoops. Cook until the fritters are golden brown, 3 to 4 minutes per side. Drain on paper towels and sprinkle with salt. Serve warm or at room temperature. (You can make the fritters up to 2 hours ahead; reheat in a 375 degrees F oven on a rack set on a baking sheet.)

POTATO ZUCCHINI FRITTERS

Steps:

• Coarsely grate potato and zucchini.
• There should be 1 cup of grated potato and 2 cups of grated zucchini.
• In a mixing bowl, add grated potato, grated zucchini, onion, cornmeal, parsley, salt, pepper, parmesan cheese and beaten eggs; mix well to blend.
• In a large frying pan, heat butter and oil to medium-high heat.
• Drop potato/zucchini mixture by heaping tablespoonfuls into the hot oil.
• Fry for 2 minutes or until golden brown on the bottom.
• Turn fritter over and fry for an additional 1 1/2 to 2 minutes or until golden brown and done.
• Add additional butter and oil if required for frying the remaining fritters.
• Serve with a dill dip or serve them just as they are.
• If too much liquid appears in the mixture, just transfer the mixture into a sieve and let drain.
• Continue to spoon the mixture to fry.

• Scoop batter by the tablespoon into the hot skillet and fry until golden brown, about 2 minutes per side.
