Ingredients
- 2–3 medium zucchini, cut into thin sticks
- 5 large eggs
- 1 tsp salt
- 1/2 tsp black pepper
- 3 cloves garlic, minced
- 3–4 tbsp flour (optional, for extra crispiness)
- 2 tbsp chopped parsley or green onions (optional)
- Oil for frying
Instructions
1. Prepare the Zucchini
Cut zucchini into thin sticks.
Lightly sprinkle with salt and let sit for 10 minutes to remove excess moisture.
Pat dry with paper towels.
2. Make the Egg Mixture
In a bowl, whisk:
- eggs
- garlic
- pepper
- a little extra salt if needed
Optional:
Add flour and herbs for better texture and flavor.
3. Coat the Zucchini
Add zucchini sticks into the egg mixture and toss until coated.
4. Fry
Heat oil in a skillet over medium heat.
Place portions of the zucchini mixture into the pan and flatten slightly like fritters.
Cook:
- 3–4 minutes per side
- until golden brown and crispy.
5. Drain & Serve
Place on paper towels to absorb excess oil.
Serve warm with:
