Crispy Vegetable Fritters Recipe (Page 2 ) | August 19, 2025

Instructions:

• Prepare the Vegetables: Start by placing the grated zucchini into a clean kitchen towel. Squeeze out as much moisture as possible; this step is crucial for achieving fritters that are crispy rather than soggy.
• Combine the Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine the squeezed zucchini, grated carrot, chopped onion, minced garlic, grated Parmesan cheese, all-purpose flour, beaten egg, chopped parsley, and dill. Season the mixture with salt and pepper to taste, then stir until all ingredients are well incorporated.
• Shape the Fritters: Using your hands, take a portion of the mixture and shape it into a small patty. Repeat this process until all the mixture is formed into patties.
• Heat the Oil: In a large skillet, heat a generous amount of olive oil over medium-high heat.
• Fry the Fritters: Carefully place the vegetable patties in the hot oil. Fry for approximately 3-4 minutes on each side, or until they are golden brown and crispy. If necessary, cook the fritters in batches to avoid overcrowding the skillet.
• Drain and Serve: Once cooked, transfer the fritters to a plate lined with paper towels to absorb any excess oil. Serve warm, paired with your choice of dip, such as sour cream, tzatziki, or a spicy yogurt dip. Enjoy the delightful blend of flavors and textures in these crispy vegetable fritters!

Here are some variations and tips for your crispy vegetable fritters:

Variations:

1. Different Vegetables: You can substitute or add other vegetables like grated sweet potato, bell peppers, or corn for a unique flavor.
2. Spices and Herbs: Experiment with spices like cumin, paprika, or cayenne pepper for added heat. Fresh herbs like cilantro or basil can also give a fresh twist.
3. Cheese Options: Try using feta cheese or mozzarella instead of Parmesan for a different taste.

Tips:

1. Moisture Control: Make sure to squeeze out as much moisture as possible from the vegetables to ensure the fritters are crispy.
2. Oil Temperature: Ensure the oil is hot enough before adding the fritters to prevent them from absorbing too much oil and becoming greasy.
3. Batch Cooking: Fry in small batches to maintain the oil temperature and achieve even cooking.
4. Serving Suggestions: Serve with a dip like tzatziki or a spicy mayo for extra flavor.

To store your crispy vegetable fritters, follow these steps:

1. Cooling: Allow the fritters to cool completely on a wire rack. This prevents them from becoming soggy due to steam.
2. Refrigeration: Once cooled, place the fritters in an airtight container. You can layer them with parchment paper to keep them from sticking together.
3. Freezing: If you want to store them for a longer period, you can freeze the fritters. Place them in a single layer on a baking sheet and freeze until solid. Then transfer them to a freezer-safe bag or container. This way, they won’t stick together.
4. Reheating: To reheat, you can bake them in the oven at 375°F (190°C) for about 10-15 minutes or until heated through and crispy again. Alternatively, you can pan-fry them briefly in a little oil to restore their crispiness.

Storing them properly will help maintain their flavor and texture!

Enjoy making your fritters!
