Zucchini Fritters

Zucchini Fritters allow us to utilize a much beloved ingredient and make it the star when often it is included alongside other summer beauties. Have you ever had these friends? I'd love to know how you serve yours in the comments below!

These fritters are also incredibly versatile and in New Zealand zucchini fritters can be found to be served stacked up and topped with poached eggs and hollandaise sauce for a nice twist on the classic brunch benedict.

Whatever you call these fruit vegetable hybrids - whether it's zucchini or courgette, a stack of these makes a really fresh and flavorful plate that can be served alongside fresh salsa or a plate of barbecued goods.

How to prepare Zucchini Fritters

  • Combine: Place the zucchini and all other ingredients into your bowl and stir together to form the batter.
  • Heat: Heat a little oil in a heavy based frying pan and ladle in one spoonful of batter, smoothing out.
  • Golden brown: Cook until golden brown on each side.

  • Plate up: Place on a plate and serve immediately.
  • Serve: Dig in and enjoy!

Tips for the best Zucchini Fritters

Serving these: There are many ways to perfectly serve your fritters, the images include a quick salsa for some acidity that pairs perfectly (see recipe below in notes), but you could absolutely serve topped with poached eggs, a creamy tzatziki or herby yogurt sauce or alongside a feast of barbecue goods.

Quick salsa: Take 1 cup of cherry tomatoes and roughly chop into quarters, toss in 1 tablespoon of finely chopped parsley and 1 tablespoon of balsamic vinegar. Serve!

Heat a little olive oil in a heavy frying pan on medium high heat and place a ladleful of the batter into the frying pan and cook until the edges begin to go a deep golden color.

Flip and cook until both sides are golden, approximately 1 ½ - 2 minutes each side.
