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:
- Run zucchini, red bell pepper, and onions through a meat grinder. Transfer ground zucchini mixture to a large bowl; sprinkle with salt. Refrigerate zucchini mixture, overnight or at least 10 hours.
- Pour zucchini mixture into a large pot; add sugar, vinegar, celery seed, and turmeric. Bring to a boil, stirring constantly, for 15 to 20 minutes. Stir cornstarch into mixture; continue boiling until thickened, about 5 more minutes.
- Sterilize the jars and lids in boiling water for at least 5 minutes. Pack relish into the hot, sterilized jars, filling the jars to within 1/4 inch of the top. Run a knife or a thin spatula around the insides of the jars after they have been filled to remove any air bubbles. Wipe the rims of the jars with a moist paper towel to remove any food residue. Top with lids, and screw on rings.
- Place a rack in the bottom of a large stockpot and fill halfway with water. Bring to a boil and lower jars into the boiling water using a holder. Leave a 2-inch space between the jars. Pour in more boiling water if necessary to bring the water level to at least 1 inch above the tops of the jars. Bring the water to a rolling boil, cover the pot, and process for 10 minutes.
- Remove the jars from the stockpot and place onto a cloth-covered or wood surface, several inches apart, until cool. Once cool, press the top of each lid with a finger, ensuring that the seal is tight (lid does not move up or down at all). Store in a cool, dark area.

Tips:
- Choose the right zucchini. Look for small to medium zucchini that are firm and have smooth, unblemished skin. Avoid zucchini that are large, as they tend to be more watery and less flavorful.
- Slice the zucchini evenly. This will ensure that they cook evenly. Use a sharp knife to cut the zucchini into 1/2-inch thick rings.
- Coat the zucchini rings in flour. This will help them to brown and crisp up nicely. You can use all-purpose flour, bread crumbs, or even panko breadcrumbs.
- Season the zucchini rings liberally. Use a variety of spices, such as garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, and salt and pepper. You can also add fresh herbs, such as basil, thyme, or oregano.
- Fry the zucchini rings in hot oil. Use a large skillet or Dutch oven filled with enough oil to cover the zucchini rings. Heat the oil over medium-high heat until it reaches 375 degrees F. Then, carefully add the zucchini rings and fry them until they are golden brown and crispy, about 2-3 minutes per side.
- Drain the zucchini rings on paper towels. This will help to remove any excess oil.
- Serve the zucchini rings immediately. They are best enjoyed hot and crispy.
Conclusion:
Zucchini rings are a delicious and easy-to-make appetizer or side dish. They are perfect for any occasion, from casual gatherings to formal parties. With their crispy coating and flavorful filling, zucchini rings are sure to be a hit with everyone who tries them. So next time you are looking for a new and exciting way to enjoy zucchini, give this recipe a try. You won't be disappointed!
