Easy Zucchini Fritters Recipe Gluten Free

GLUTEN-FREE ZUCCHINI FRITTERS

Steps:

• Set a colander over a dinner plate and line the colander with a kitchen tea towel. Grate the zucchini with a box grater or the grating attachment of a food processor.
• Add the grated zucchini to the colander, sprinkle with the salt and toss to combine. Let sit for 10 minutes to drain.
• While the zucchini is draining, add the chopped green onions, feta cheese, dill, parsley, garlic and red pepper flakes to a large bowl. Whisk the eggs together in a small dish and add them to the mixture.
• Pick up the corners of the kitchen tea towel with the zucchini and squeeze the water from the zucchini into the kitchen sink. Give it a good squeeze to remove the excess moisture as much as possible.
• Add the squeezed zucchini to the bowl with the cheese and herb mixture. Sift the gluten-free flour over the zucchini mixture and stir it until it is evenly blended.
• Add a couple of tablespoons of oil to a 10-inch skillet set over medium heat. When the oil is hot, add a generous tablespoon of the zucchini mixture to the skillet. Cook the fritters in batches of 3 or 4 at a time. Flatten with the back of a spoon while they cook.
• Cook until the edges begin to turn golden, about 3 minutes, then flip and cook the other side for about 3 more minutes.
• Transfer the fritters to a paper towel-lined plate to drain while cooking the remaining fritters.
• In a small dish, add the yogurt, garlic and dill and stir until it is well mixed. Add salt and pepper to taste, and serve alongside the plate of fritters.

EASY ZUCCHINI FRITTERS RECIPE (GLUTEN-FREE)

Steps:

• Using a box grater or a food processor, shred the zucchini. Once shredded, sprinkle salt into the shredded zucchinis (about 1/2 teaspoon or so) and set aside for 10-15 minutes. Completely squeeze out the water out of the shredded zucchini.
• In a medium bowl, combine all the ingredients - the shredded zucchini, flour, cheese, scallion, and eggs. Add salt and pepper according to taste. Whisk using a spoon or spatula.
• In a frying pan, heat oil over medium heat. Scoop the zucchini batter according to your preferred size. Fry for 3-5 minutes each side or until golden brown and crispy on the edges. Before flipping, spoon some oil from the pan and pour over the fritters. Press down the fritters once flipped. I used a 1/4 size measuring cup to scoop the zucchini batter. Do not overcrowd while frying.

• Enjoy immediately with sour cream if desired or refrigerate and reheat in microwave when ready to serve.

GLUTEN FREE ZUCCHINI FRITTERS RECIPE

Steps:

• Coarsely grate the zucchini. Place the zucchini in a colander set over a bowl and sprinkle with 1/2 tsp of salt. Let it stand for 10 minutes and release juice. With your hands or a wooden spoon squeeze out as much liquid from the zucchini as possible. Transfer the zucchini to a large bowl. Add the flour, eggs, cheese, green onion, ¼ teaspoon salt and ⅛ teaspoon pepper, stir until combined. Fry on medium heat with 1 tbsp of olive oil. I like to use a nonstick frying pan, as it allows to use less oil. When the oil is hot, scoop about 2 tbsp of your mixture into the pan and flatten a bit. Cook the zucchini fritters for 2 to 3 minutes, then flip and cook for an additional 2 minutes.
