I've gone zucchini crazy!! Here is a great recipe I made last night:
Ingredients
3 medium sized zucchinis
2 small carrot
1 small onion
About half a cup SR flour
2 teaspoons cumin seeds, toasted
Handful of fresh chopped coriander
4 eggs, separated
Salt and pepper for seasoning
Oil for frying
Method
- Shred zucchini and carrot lengthways using a mandolin (or coarsely grate) and place in a large bowl, add onion, flour and cumin seeds, fresh coriander and mix through.
- Stir egg yolks through and season to taste with sea salt and freshly ground black pepper.
- Whisk eggwhites to firm peaks and gently fold through fritter mixture.
- Depending on how much moisture is in your vegetables, you may need to add more SR flour at this point - it should look like a batter.
- Heat oil in a large frying pan over medium heat. Place a good sized serving spoonful and leave until you see bubbles forming on the surface (and the underside is golden brown). Flip and repeat.
Nadz Notes:
- I think this would also be great with ground cumin or coriander in there.
- Also - would probably work with sweet potato, potato, pumpkin...
- Great for breakfast
- I think this would also be great with tzatziki.
- These could be frozen or kept in the fridge and reheated in the microwave.
- What I had for lunch today: Zucchini fritter (reheated in the microwave), light cream cheese, Thai cashew nut dip (just bought at the shops), rocket, sliced tomato, sliced avocado and topped with smoked salmon.
I keep singing the praises of my mandolin/v-slicer - it just makes vegetable dishes SO EASY!!
