Due out in early 2010, our new book Farmers' Market Favorites includes this gem of a recipe, shared by Debra Manley of Bowling Green, Ohio...thanks again!
Crispy Zucchini Fritters
4 zucchini, thickly shredded
1 t. salt, divided
2 eggs, beaten
1/2 t. pepper
1/2 c. all-purpose flour
olive oil for frying
Toss zucchini with 1/2 teaspoon salt. Transfer to a colander and let stand 10 minutes. Drain, pressing out as much liquid as possible. In a large bowl, whisk together eggs, remaining salt and pepper until light and frothy. Whisk in zucchini; stir in flour. Heat oil in a large non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Drop batter by tablespoonfuls, flattening with the back of a spoon. Fry about 2 minutes on each side, until crisp and golden. Serves 4.
This recipe is definitely a keeper...and so simple to whip up! If you haven't already, read all about Debra in yesterday's post...she was as our very first Gooseberry Superstar!
