Cheesy Dilled Zucchini Fritters


I love zucchini. I know there are people out there that don't. But hey if you don't, have you ever tried chocolate zucchini cake. You would never know it had zucchini in it. But that is precisely what I love about zucchini. VERSATILITY in a CHEAP vegetable.

Cheesy Dilled Zucchini Fritters
Lori's Lipsmacking Goodness

2 medium zucchinis, shredded
4 oz shredded cheese, I used Gruyere
2 tablespoons fresh dill, minced
3 tablespoons flour
2 eggs
1 small onion minced
s and p

Place shredded zucchini in a colander over a bowl and salt. Let stand 20 minutes. Squeeze excess water out and combine with remaining ingredients.

Fry in a little oil until browned.

Lori these look terrific! I've never seen one before, I'm lovin the cheese in this!!

grace said...

mmm...the fact that the zukes have been frittered is awesome enough, but adding cheese is an idea that makes these outstanding! i love the dill too. but not as much as the cheese. :)

Yummy! Hey I sent you jam for the jam exchange and forgot to put a note, I did send an email though! I hope you got both?

There is nothing better than a cheap and versatile veggie because there are so few! The fritters sound so good!

This recipe comes in handy...I have a huge zucchini sitting on the counter and have used up most of my zucchini recipes! Thanks.

The perfect way to eat zucchini! I wonder if I can use regular squash this way? What do you think?

Lori said...

Robin Sue- I am assuming you mean yellow squash. If so, I think it would be fine.

Bugaboo said...

Oooo, great idea. Sounds yummy! Since you seem to like zucchini so much, you can check out my zucchini bisque if you'd like (it was fabulous!) dirtpoorfilthyrich.blogspot.com

It's my 1st time here and I like your blog already!

i love zucchini fritters! We got a recipe quite similar from my Italian girl friend's family back in highschool. Even my little boy likes them....what's not to like though? He takes them to school in his lunch. I always look forward to receiving zucchini from friends with over active gardens:)
