Cooking duration: -1 minutes

 

Ingredients:

2 tbsp breadcrumbs

2 eggs, beaten

½ cup flour

1 tsp Garlic Powder

1 lemon, juiced

4 tbsp Olive oil, for pan frying

1 tsp Onion Powder

1 tbsp Grated Parmesan Cheese

½ cup parsley, chopped

1 tsp Pepper

Plain Greek Yogurt

2 zucchini (about 8 oz each) trimmed

Equipment:

food processor

bowl

frying pan

baking sheet

paper towels

Cooking instruction summary:

  1. Chop the zucchini into small pieces. Place in food processor and pulse until there are small bits left. (If you have a grating attachment on your food processor you can use that instead).
  2. In a medium bowl add zucchini, lemon juice, parsley, flour, eggs, spices, Parmesan cheese, and breadcrumbs. Mix together until evenly distributed.
  3. Place olive oil in a large frying pan and heat over medium high heat. Working in batches, add a little less than a cup of batter to the frying pan for each fritter. Cook until golden brown on the bottom, about 45 seconds. Flip over and cook until golden brown on the other side.
  4. Place a few layers of paper towel on a baking sheet or plate. Once fritters are done, transfer to the lined baking sheet or dish and let the paper towel soak up extra oil.
  5. Garnish with more lemon juice and a dollop of Greek yogurt before serving.

Food Joke

A cowboy rode into town and stopped at the saloon for a drink. Unfortunately, the locals always had a habit of picking on newcomers. When he finished, he found his horse had been stolen.He comes back into the bar, handily flips his gun into the air, catches it above his head without even looking and fires a shot into the ceiling. "Who stole my horse?" he yelled with surprising forcefulness.No one answered."I`m gonna have another beer and if my horse ain`t back outside by the time I`m finished, I`m gonna do what I dun back in Texas and I don`t want to have to do what I dun back in Texas!"Some of the locals shifted restlessly.He had another beer, walked outside, and his horse was back! He saddled up and started to ride out of town.The bartender wandered out of the bar and asked, "Say partner, what happened in Texas?"The cowboy turned back and said, "I had to walk home!"
