One more thing about these tasty fritters is that you can add more or less jalapeno to your liking or any other spices, it’s hard to go wrong!

How to make the best zucchini fritters
- Bring a big bowl, start shredding zucchini and toss it in the bowl. Add pinch of salt to the zucchini and wait between 5 to 10 minutes so it can drains the excess liquid.
- Bring a clean cheese cloth or dish towel, squeeze the zucchini until there’s no liquid squeezing out of it.
- Mix the batter, Add the flour, milk and olive oil. Then bring the zucchini, jalapeno pepper cut in small pieces, minced garlic, parsley and scallions also cut in small pieces. Add lemon or lime juice as much as you like it to be sour, but I added 1 tbsp. Mix all together and start forming the patties. If it still really sticky add extra flour.
- Heat up a pan to medium heat and start placing the patties or use a big spoon to form them.
- Cook on a medium heat until it turns gold brown. Yuummy I’m sure it looks really good right now!!
- Serve the fritters with rice, potatoes and your favorite sauce! I used the rice that I cooked the day before. but you can replace the rice or the potatoes with salad or whatever you’re craving!
