Fritters

Method

Preparation

  1. 1

    Prepare the Zucchini

    Grate the zucchini using a box grater or food processor. Place the grated zucchini in a clean kitchen towel and squeeze out excess moisture.

  2. 2

    Make the Batter

    In a mixing bowl, combine the grated zucchini, flour, eggs, Parmesan cheese, minced garlic, salt, and black pepper. Mix until well combined.

  3. 3

    Toast the Pine Nuts

    In a small skillet over medium heat, toast the pine nuts until golden brown, about 3-5 minutes. Stir frequently to avoid burning. Set aside.

  4. 4

    Fry the Fritters

    Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Drop spoonfuls of the zucchini mixture into the skillet, flattening them slightly with the back of the spoon. Cook each fritter for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until golden brown. Remove and drain on paper towels.

  5. 5

    Serve

    Serve the fritters warm, topped with toasted pine nuts and a dollop of pesto aioli.
