Ingredients:

  • 2 medium zucchinis, grated (about 2 cups)
  • 1/2 cup corn kernels (fresh, frozen, or canned)
  • 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
  • 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
  • 1 large egg, lightly beaten
  • 2 tbsp chopped green onions
  • 1/2 tsp garlic powder
  • Salt and pepper, to taste
  • Cooking spray (for frying)

Optional for serving:

  • Low-fat sour cream or Greek yogurt
  • Chopped parsley or chives for garnish

Instructions:

Step 1: Prepare the Zucchini

  1. Grate the zucchini using a box grater.
  2. Place grated zucchini in a clean kitchen towel and squeeze out as much liquid as possible. This step is crucial to prevent soggy fritters.

Step 2: Mix the Ingredients

  1. In a large bowl, combine:
    • Grated zucchini
    • Corn kernels
    • Flour
    • Parmesan cheese
    • Beaten egg
    • Green onions
    • Garlic powder
    • Salt and pepper
  2. Mix until evenly combined.

Step 3: Cook the Fritters

  1. Heat a non-stick skillet over medium heat and spray with cooking spray.
  2. Scoop about 2 tablespoons of the mixture for each fritter and drop it onto the skillet. Flatten slightly with a spatula.
  3. Cook for 2–3 minutes per side, or until golden brown and crispy.
  4. Repeat until all fritters are cooked.

Step 4: Serve

  1. Serve warm with a dollop of low-fat sour cream or Greek yogurt.
  2. Garnish with chopped parsley or chives.

Tips:

  • Get Crispy Fritters: Make sure the zucchini is well-drained and don’t overcrowd the skillet.
  • Add Protein: Serve with grilled chicken or shrimp for a complete meal.
  • Spice It Up: Add a pinch of chili flakes or paprika for extra flavor.

Serving Suggestions:

  • Serve as a side dish with grilled meats.
  • Enjoy as a snack or appetizer with a dipping sauce like Greek yogurt ranch.
