Easy Zucchini Fritters

Ingredients

• 1 1/2 pounds zucchini, grated
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
• 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
• 1 large egg, beaten
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• Kosher salt and ground black pepper to taste
• 2 tablespoons olive oil

Directions

Toss zucchini and salt together in a large colander and place in sink to drain for 10 minutes.

Put zucchini in the middle of a piece of cheesecloth; wrap cheesecloth around zucchini and squeeze to drain as much moisture from zucchini as possible.

Mix flour, Parmesan cheese, egg, garlic, kosher salt, and pepper together in a large bowl. Stir in zucchini.

Heat olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat.

Scoop batter by the tablespoon into the hot skillet and fry until golden brown, about 2 minutes per side.
