ZUCCHINI FRITTERS
One day I wanted to serve zucchini as a side dish-but I didn't have the time to slice and deep-fry it. So I came up with these fritters instead! They go especially well with barbecued ribs or pork chops and corn on the cob. I'm an avid recipe clipper. I've also assisted at our church's Wednesday night suppers, cooking for as many as 125 people. -Mary Dixson, Catlin, Illinois

Steps:
- Salt the zucchini generously and leave to drain in a colander for one hour, tossing and squeezing the zucchini from time to time. Take up handfuls of zucchini, and squeeze out all of the moisture. Alternately, wrap in a clean dish towel, and squeeze out the water by twisting at both ends.
- In a large bowl, beat the eggs and add the shredded zucchini, herbs, cumin, bread crumbs, salt and pepper to taste and feta. Mix together well. Take up a small handful of the mixture; if it presses neatly into a patty, it is the right consistency. If it seems wet, add more breadcrumbs or a few tablespoons of all-purpose flour. When the mixture has the right consistency, cover the bowl with plastic wrap and refrigerate for one hour or longer.
- Heat 1 inch of olive oil in a large frying pan until rippling, or at about 275 degrees. Meanwhile, take up heaped tablespoons of the zucchini mixture, and form balls or patties. Lightly dredge in flour.
- When the oil is very hot, add the patties in batches to the pan. Fry until golden brown, turning once with a spider or slotted spoon. Remove from the oil, and drain briefly on a rack. Serve with plain Greek style yogurt if desired.

Tips:
- Select fresh and firm zucchini: Look for zucchini that are deep green in color, firm to the touch, and have no blemishes.
- Grate the zucchini: Use a box grater or a food processor to grate the zucchini. Make sure to squeeze out excess moisture from the grated zucchini before adding it to the batter.
- Don't overmix the batter: Overmixing the batter will make the fritters tough. Mix just until the ingredients are combined.
- Use a non-stick skillet: A non-stick skillet will help prevent the fritters from sticking. Heat the skillet over medium heat before adding the batter.
- Cook the fritters in batches: Don't overcrowd the skillet. Cook the fritters in batches so that they have enough room to brown.
- Flip the fritters carefully: Use a spatula to carefully flip the fritters once they are golden brown on the bottom.
- Serve the fritters warm: Zucchini fritters are best served warm. You can serve them with a variety of dipping sauces, such as ketchup, mayonnaise, or ranch dressing.
