Vegetable Egg Fritters Recipe
Ingredients:
- 2 medium zucchinis, grated
- 1 large carrot, grated
- 1 small red bell pepper, finely chopped
- 1 small onion, finely chopped
- 3 large eggs
- 1/2 cup all-purpose flour
- 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese
- 1/2 teaspoon baking powder
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
- 1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
- 1/2 teaspoon paprika
- 1/4 cup fresh parsley, chopped
- Olive oil for frying
Instructions:
1. Prepare the Vegetables:
- Grate the zucchinis and carrots using a box grater or food processor.
- Place the grated zucchini in a clean kitchen towel and squeeze out excess moisture.
- In a large bowl, combine the grated zucchini, grated carrots, chopped red bell pepper, and chopped onion.
2. Make the Batter:
- In a separate bowl, beat the eggs until well combined.
- Add the flour, grated Parmesan cheese, baking powder, salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and paprika to the eggs. Mix until smooth.
- Pour the egg mixture into the bowl with the vegetables and stir until well combined.
- Fold in the chopped fresh parsley.
3. Cook the Fritters:
- Heat a tablespoon of olive oil in a non-stick skillet or frying pan over medium heat.
- Spoon about 1/4 cup of the vegetable mixture into the pan for each fritter, flattening them slightly with the back of the spoon.
- Cook the fritters for 3-4 minutes on each side, or until golden brown and cooked through.
- Transfer the cooked fritters to a plate lined with paper towels to drain excess oil.
- Repeat with the remaining batter, adding more oil to the pan as needed.
4. Serve:
- Serve the vegetable egg fritters hot, garnished with additional fresh parsley if desired.
- They can be served as a side dish, appetizer, or main course.
Tips:
- For an extra touch, you can add some grated cheese (like cheddar or mozzarella) to the batter.
- These fritters can be made ahead of time and reheated in the oven or microwave.
- You can also serve them with a dipping sauce, such as sour cream, Greek yogurt, or a spicy mayo.
