Zucchini Fritters

Zucchini Fritters (my version)

6 cups shredded zucchini
1/4 cup shredded onion
1/4 cup protein powder
1/4 cup Bob's Red Mill Soy Flour
1/4 cup Parmesan Cheese
2 eggs (beaten)
salt and pepper
Granulated Garlic, 1 teaspoon

Shred Zucchini using a grater. Place grated zucchini in a large mixing bowl with the other ingredients, mixing well. I recommend mixing your dry ingredients in one bowl and mixing them separately, then adding them to the Zucchini /egg mix.

Mix all together well.

Heat about 1/2 inch Peanut Oil oil in a frying pan to where water sizzles if you flick a little into the pan.

Using a large Tablespoon, drop Zucchini /egg mix into hot oil, in small ( about 2 or 3 inch diameter) mounds. When the bottom is browning, flip over, continue cooking till done and crisp.
It helps to use your spoon to press them down a bit in the oil, flatten them a bit.

Work in small batches, until all the batter is used up. You should be able to get at least ten fritters, 15-20 depending on how thin you make them.

Drain on a rack covered with paper towels, set over the sink.

Hint: Place old newspaper in the sink to catch any excess oil. When you're done with your cooking and draining, you can just throw the newspaper away and wipe out the sink with a good cleaner. This makes for easier and quicker clean up time.
