Categories     Side

Yield 3

Number Of Ingredients 7

12 Oz/340 grams/2 small-medium Zucchini,
1/4 cup grated Carrot
1/2 cup (abt 1 small potato) boiled and mashed Potato
1/4 cup Whole Wheat Pastry Flour
1/4 tsp Baking Powder
1/4 tsp dried Thyme (optional)
Salt and Pepper to taste

Steps:

  • Grate the Zucchini. Use the large hole.Place it in a colander and 1 tsp Salt to it. Toss to combine and set aside for at least 30 minutes.Squeeze the water out of zucchini. You can use your hands or use a cheesecloth like I have done for my Zucchini Falafels.Add them along with thyme, potatoes and carrots in a bowl. You can at this point do a taste test to see if you want more salt. Season accordingly.In another bowl, mix the flour and baking powder until combined.Add it to the vegetable mixture. Mix until well combined. Mix until well combined.Form into patties. Repeat for rest of them. At this point you can also refrigerate these in the fridge (for about 20-30 min) which will help to hold them up well while frying. It also helps to avoid oil retention. Its not strictly necessary to do this.Add 1-2 tbsp of oil to your Cast iron pan (or as desired to coat the bottom of a non stick skillet. Note that regular non stick will require less amount of oil) . When hot, add the patties.Cook them until golden-reddish brown on both the sides. Takes around 5-6 minutes each side. Serve hot with ketchup / Chilli sauce/ Yogurt or sour cream.

Categories     Squash

Yield 4 people

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 cups peeled and grated potatoes
2 cups of grated zucchini
¼ cup onion, diced
2 cloves garlic, chopped
2 Tablespoons of olive oil
2 eggs
½ teaspoon baking powder
⠓ cup flour
1 teaspoon of salt, divided
Oil for the pan

Steps:

  • Mix zucchini, potatoes and ½ teaspoon salt. Place in a colander for about 10 minutes. Squeeze out extra water with a paper towel. In the meantime cook onions with some oil in a pan until translucent. Add the garlic and cook for one more minute. Set aside. Whisk the eggs in a bowl. Mix in flour, baking powder and ½ teaspoon salt. Add zucchini and onion mixtures and stir until well combined. Heat some oil in a bigger pan (medium-high heat) and drop the batter in portions. I use a ¼ cup to measure out the pancakes. Flatten the pancakes with a fork. Fry until crispy on both sides, flipping them when edges turn brown. This depends on how high you have set the heat. Higher heat works better to avoid soggy and sad looking pancakes! Serve immediately.

Tips:

  • Use a box grater to shred the zucchini and potato. This will create even, thin shreds that will cook evenly.
  • Squeeze out as much excess moisture from the zucchini and potato as possible. This will help the fritters to be crispy.
  • Don't overmix the batter. Overmixing will make the fritters tough.
  • Use a non-stick skillet or griddle to cook the fritters. This will help to prevent them from sticking.
  • Cook the fritters over medium heat. This will help them to cook evenly without burning.
  • Serve the fritters hot with your favorite dipping sauce.
