Prep Notes
Cooking Time
10 minutes
Ingredients
2 cups zucchini (grated)
2 organic (eggs)
1/2 cup onion (chopped)
1/4 cup fresh mint leaves (chopped)
grass -fed butter or extra virgin olive oil
sea salt and pepper to taste
Directions
Grate the zucchinis and a pinch of salt. Let mixture stand for about 5 minutes. Using a clean kitchen squeeze the zucchini in order to get rid of excess water, than mix in chopped onion, mint, sea salt and pepper. Mix well it should be as thick like pancake batter.
In a saute pan add butter/oil saute in small batch (silver dollar size) about 2 minutes on each side or until golden brown.
Sprinkle some fresh mint and serve!
Notes
Zucchini has a hight water content, so adding eggs gives it the protein and fat that makes these fritters nourishing filling meal.
I love them with a simple Arugula Salad.
