Delicious Courgette Fritters Recipe - Quick and Healthy

A tasty and adaptable dish that can be enjoyed at any time of day are courgette fritters. These nutrient-dense fritters are a great way to increase your intake of vegetables. This recipe is simple to make and filling, making it a great choice for a light snack or a side dish.

Ingredients:
2 medium courgettes (zucchini)
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
2 large eggs
2 cloves of garlic, minced
1/4 teaspoon baking powder
Salt and pepper to taste
2 tablespoons olive oil for frying

Essential tools:
Grater
Bowls for mixing
Whisky
A non-stick skillet
A spatula
To drain, use paper towels.

Time spent preparing:
15 minutes for preparation
Ten minutes to cook
Twenty-five minutes in total.

Directions:
Get the courgettes ready: 
Clean the courgettes and grate them. Squeeze off as much water as you can from the grated courgettes using a fresh kitchen towel or cheesecloth. To guarantee that your fritters are crispy and not soggy, this step is essential.

To prepare the batter: 
Combine the eggs, flour, grated Parmesan cheese, baking powder, salt, pepper, and minced garlic in a mixing bowl. Mix thoroughly after adding the drained courgettes.

Heat the oil: 
In a non-stick skillet over medium heat, warm the olive oil. Use a tiny drop of batter to test the oil's temperature; it should sizzle right away.

Cook the fritters: 
By gently adding pieces of the mixture to the pan using a spoon. Using the back of the spoon, gently flatten to create spherical fritters. Cook until golden brown, 2 to 3 minutes per side.

Drain and serve: 
After taking the fritters out of the pan, lay them out on paper towels to soak up any remaining oil. Serve warm with your favorite dipping sauce or a dollop of sour cream.
