Time 25m

Yield Makes about 20

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 medium zucchini (about 8 ounces each), trimmed
1 medium onion
1/2 cup grated Pecorino Romano cheese (1 ounce)
1/3 cup all-purpose flour
1/2 cup finely chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley
1 teaspoon finely chopped fresh oregano
Coarse salt and freshly ground pepper
2 large eggs, lightly beaten
Extra-virgin olive oil, for frying
Plain yogurt and apricot jam, for serving

Steps:

  • Grate zucchini on the large holes of a box grater, then squeeze dry in a clean kitchen towel or press in a ricer. Repeat with onion.
  • Mix together zucchini, onion, cheese, flour, and herbs. Season with 1 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Stir in eggs just before frying.
  • Heat a medium skillet over medium-high heat. Working in batches, coat skillet with 1 to 2 tablespoons oil. Scoop mounds (2 tablespoons each) of the zucchini mixture into skillet; flatten slightly using a spatula. Cook until golden brown and cooked through, 2 to 3 minutes per side.
  • Transfer fritters to paper-towel-lined plates to drain. Serve with dollops of plain yogurt and apricot jam.
