Baked potato and zucchini fritters that are simple and delicious. The recipe I want to share with you today features my beloved zucchinis and potatoes. A simple recipe with guaranteed success, even for the most inexperienced cooks. I added shredded carrots and zucchinis to a puree of boiled potatoes, using a coarse grater. I baked the Zucchini and Potato Patties in the oven, but if you prefer, you can fry them or cook them in an air fryer. I didn’t add any egg because the mixture was already soft enough, and the potatoes help bind it. These Carrot and Zucchini Fritters are loved by everyone, even the little ones at home who may not like vegetables much. They are ready in just a few minutes, with the only lengthy task being boiling the potatoes, or you can cook them more quickly in the microwave. So, have I convinced you to try them?

How to make Zucchini and Carrot Fritters
Peel the potatoes and let them cook in water for about 30 minutes. Check the potatoes’ doneness by piercing them with a fork. The cooking time depends on their size and quality, so adjust accordingly.
Wash the zucchinis and peel the carrots. Grate both the zucchinis and carrots with a coarse grater into a bowl. Mash the boiled potatoes using a potato masher. Combine the carrots and zucchinis with the potatoes.
Add a pinch of salt, chopped parsley, and grated Parmesan cheese. Mix well using a fork or your hands. Form the fritters: take some mixture into your hands, compact it, and then flatten it slightly.
Place the zucchini fritters as you prepare them on a baking sheet lined with parchment paper, side by side. Lightly oil the surface.
Bake the Carrot and Zucchini Patties in a preheated oven at 375°F (190°C) for 20-25 minutes. If you prefer, you can cook them in an air fryer at 375°F (190°C) for 16-18 minutes.
