    Crispy Zucchini Scallion Fritters

    Jump to Recipe Print Recipe

    These Crispy Zucchini Scallion Fritters are the best of both worlds. Crunchy on the outside, fluffy on the inside and some flavourful herbs and spices, making them irresistible.

    Crispy Zucchini Scallion Fritters

    A green match made in heaven! Zucchini and scallion fit perfectly together. The seasonal vegetables are rich in vitamins to nourish the body and oh so delicious. Fresh chives added to the fritter mixture make this green combination a flavourful and balanced one.

    This delicious green stack can be served as a low-carb lunch or dinner, starter to share or snack. Either way, these healthy vegetable fritters will satisfy your savoury cravings in a balanced way.

    Tips for making these crispy roasted veggie fritters

    This crispy and fluffy stack is just 30 minutes away. Here are some tips to get the best result:

    • Season the grated zucchini with salt and let it sit for about 10 minutes. Then squeeze out all the liquid by pressing it in your hand. This way, you don’t get soggy fritters and they turn out perfectly fluffy.
    • Use the white and green parts of the scallions when chopping. The green part adds some extra flavour and is too precious to throw away. Also, we want to reduce food waste, right?
    • Freshly grate the nutmeg instead of using nutmeg powder. When it comes to flavour, it makes all the difference.
