Zucchini Fritters

These fresh zucchini fritters are easy to make and beyond delicious.

INGREDIENTS

• 450 g zucchini
• 1 teaspoon salt
• Freshly ground black pepper
• 2 large eggs, beaten
• 1 tablespoon Wafu^® Original Sesame Japanese Dressing
• ½ cup all-purpose flour
• ½ teaspoon baking powder
• 4 tablespoons olive oil
• Dill, for garnish

DIRECTIONS

1. Grate the zucchini into a medium bowl using the large holes of a grater.
2. Add the salt and mix well. Let stand for 5 minutes. Lightly squeeze the zucchini mass and pour out any excess water.
3. Add the pepper, eggs and Wafu^® Original Sesame Japanese Dressing. Mix well to combine.
4. In a separate bowl, combine the flour and baking powder.
5. Slowly add the flour to the zucchini mixture, stirring so that lumps do not form.
6. In a large pan, heat 2 tablespoons of oil over medium high heat. When the oil begins to sizzle, drop 2 tablespoons of the zucchini mixture into the pan one at a time. Make sure that the fritters are a few centimetres apart in the pan, as they will spread.
7. Cook the fritters for 2-3 minutes or until golden brown. Lower the heat and flip the fritters and cook for another 2-3 minutes.
8. Remove fritters and transfer to a paper towel to absorb excess oil.
9. Repeat for next batch until batter is finished, adding more oil to the pan as necessary.
10. Transfer the fritters to a plate. Garnish with dill and serve.
