Ingredients

  • 2 lbs of zucchini (ends trimmed (about 4 medium sized ones))
  • 3 potatoes (finely grated)
  • 2 cups all-purpose flour
  • 1 cup shredded mozzarella cheese
  • 1 egg
  • 1 tsp sugar
  • 1 1/2 tsp salt
  • 1/2 tsp pepper

Instructions

  1. 1

    Wash, dry and grate zucchini (and squash if using) with a box grater. Transfer to a colander and squeeze tightly to remove any liquid. Transfer to a large bowl and add the remaining ingredients. Set aside.

  2. 2

    Heat a large non-stick pan to medium heat. Fry fritters in 6 tbsp of oil for 3-5 minutes on each side.

  3. 3

    Serve with a dollop of sour cream before serving.

  4. 4

    Notes: It's best to reheat in a toaster oven to replicate fresh out of the skillet fritters. Squash can be used in place of the zucchini or a mixture of both. I have used half squash and half zucchini so either or both will work for these fritters.
