Ingredients

  • 600 g zucchini (grated)
  • 1 dessertspoon salt
  • ¼ cup whole wheat flour
  • 2 cloves garlic (crushed)
  • 1 large egg (beaten)
  • 2 tbsp olive oil

Method

Put the grated zucchini in a strainer and rinse well under running water. Add the salt, mix thoroughly, and let it sit for 10 minutes. Using a paper towel, squeeze out all the water from the zucchini. In a large bowl, combine the zucchini, flour, garlic, salt, and any spices you like. Heat the olive oil in a wide pan. Take 1 tablespoon of the mixture, press it flat with a spatula, and place it in the pan. Cook each fritter for 2–3 minutes per side, then serve. Enjoy!
