Ingredients

  • 3 cups grated zucchini
  • ⅓ cup rice flour
  • ⅓ cup besan flour
  • 1 tablespoon garlic
  • 1 teaspoon ginger
  • ½ teaspoon chilli flakes
  • ¼ teaspoon pepper powder
  • ½ cup onion
  • 2 tablespoon thick curd
  • ¼ teaspoon soda
  • salt to taste

Instructions

  • Grate 1 medium sized zucchini using a big holed grater. Trim both the edges and discard them. It is around 3 cups of grated zucchini.
  • Transfer to a strainer, add salt to taste, mix well.
  • Keep covered and let it rest for 10-15 minutes.
  • Press well to squeeze the juice, remove as much as water content as possible. This makes the fritters super crispy. Reserve the extracted juice for later use.
  • To a mixing bowl add
  • 3 cups grated zucchini
    ⅓ cup rice flour
    ⅓ cup besan flour
    1 tablespoon garlic1 teaspoon ginger
    ½ teaspoon chilli flakes
    ¼ teaspoon pepper powder
    salt to taste
    ½ cup onion
    2 tablespoon thick curd
    ¼ teaspoon soda
  • Mix it well to form a thick batter. Add little of extracted juice only if needed. I added around 2 tablespoon. First mix and see then add only if needed else it will become watery.
  • Scoop the batter using a deep curved ladle.
  • Heat oil in a pan for shallow frying. Make sure oil is hot before adding the batter. Add the batter and slightly flatten it. It should be slightly thick not too thin.
  • Flip over and cook. Cook both the sides until golden brown.
  • Serve hot!

Notes

  • Zucchini - I used one whole medium sized zucchini. Trim the edges and grate it using big holed grater. Squeeze the water content as much as possible. You can even use a cloth to squeeze.
  • Balance - Measure zucchini after grating and adjust the flours accordingly.
    Batter - The batter should be thick and not too loose. So add the extracted juice only if needed.
  • Pan - Use a flat pan which has lifted edges, that will be perfect for shallow frying. You can use any flat tawa for frying the fritters.
  • Frying - Fry until golden brown on both the sides, the fritters should have a crisp outside.
