Number Of Ingredients 10

1 cup grated zucchini
1 cup corn (fresh, canned or defrosted & drained if frozen)
1/2 cup whole wheat flour
1 egg
1/2 cup grated cheddar cheese
1/4 cup milk
1 tsp baking powder
1/4 tsp salt (or to taste)
1/4 tsp onion powder
olive oil or avocado oil for cooking

Steps:

  • Place grated zucchini in the middle of a paper towel. Squeeze out as much of the moisture as you can.
  • Place drained zucchini with all other remaining ingredients except oil in a medium bowl.
  • Mix to combine everything.
  • In a large skillet, warm your cooking oil over medium heat. Once the oil is hot, use a heaping tablespoon to portion the fritter batter into the hot pan.
  • Cook for 2-3 minutes or until the fritter starts to turn golden brown. Flip, gently press down to flatten the fritter a bit and cook for another 2 minutes or until cooked through.
  • Remove from pan and enjoy warm with sliced avocado, sour cream or dipping sauce of choice.

Categories     Appetizer/Starter     Side Dish

Time 20m

Number Of Ingredients 12

11 1/2 oz zucchini (325g courgette, approx - 2 medium zucchini)
1/2 onion
1 pinch salt
1 cup corn (155g, from 1 ear of corn)
1/2 cup grated mozzarella (60g/ 2oz)
1/3 cup grated parmesan (20g/ 3/4oz)
1 egg
1/3 cup all purpose flour (45g plain flour)
1 tsp baking powder
1 pinch pepper
olive oil for frying
sour cream and paprika to serve (optional)

Steps:

  • Trim the end off the zucchini, peel the onion then coarsely grate both. Put them into a colander and sprinkle over some salt. Toss and leave while you prepare the rest.
  • If using fresh corn, peel and remove the kernels from the cob. If using frozen/can make sure it is defrosted and well drained.
  • Coarsely grate the mozzarella and grate the parmesan relatively finely.
  • Squeeze as much liquid as you can from the zucchini and onion and discard the liquid. Put the drained zucchini and onion in a bowl with the corn, mozzarella, parmesan, egg, flour, baking powder and pepper. Mix well so well combined and ingredients seem pretty evenly distributed, without breaking up the zucchini too much.
  • Warm a thin layer of olive oil in a medium skillet/frying pan over a medium heat (you can do more/less at once in a smaller/bigger skillet, as you find easier to manage). Put spoonfuls of the mixture into the skillet and press them down with a spatula/fish slice to gently flatten.
  • Leave the fritters to cook a couple minutes (around 3, but will depend a little on pan/heat) until you can see the underside starting to brown. Turn over and cook a couple more minutes on the other side. Remove from the pan and set aside, ideally covered, while you cook further batches.
  • Suggest serving with a little sour cream and paprika on top or just as they are.

ZUCCHINI-CORN FRITTERS



Zucchini-Corn Fritters image

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Time 45m

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 medium zucchini, coarsely shredded
Kosher salt
1 tablespoon unsalted butter
1/2 small onion, finely chopped
1 clove garlic, finely chopped
2 ears corn, kernels cut off 1/2 cup yellow cornmeal
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1/4 teaspoon baking soda
Freshly ground black pepper
3/4 cup buttermilk
1 large egg
Vegetable oil, for frying

Steps:

  • Toss the zucchini with 1/2 teaspoon salt in a medium bowl; let stand 10 minutes. Wrap the zucchini in a kitchen towel and squeeze dry.
  • Meanwhile, heat the butter in a large nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the onion and garlic and cook, stirring occasionally, until slightly softened, about 4 minutes. Add the corn and cook, stirring occasionally, until crisp-tender, about 3 minutes. Set aside.
  • Whisk the cornmeal, flour, baking soda, 3/4 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon pepper in a medium bowl. Whisk the buttermilk and egg in a large bowl, then stir in the corn-onion mixture and zucchini. Add the cornmeal mixture and stir until just combined.
  • Wipe out the skillet the corn-onion mixture cooked in. Pour in about 1/8 inch vegetable oil and place over medium heat. Working in batches, scoop scant 1/4 cupfuls of the batter into the oil and use the back of the measuring cup to flatten the scoops. Cook until the fritters are golden brown, 3 to 4 minutes per side. Drain on paper towels and sprinkle with salt. Serve warm or at room temperature. (You can make the fritters up to 2 hours ahead; reheat in a 375 degrees F oven on a rack set on a baking sheet.)
