Hello everyone, here I am again, Yesterday I decided to make these Zucchini and Cheese Fritters, an easy and quick recipe. If you have zucchini in the fridge that you need to use and you don’t feel like preparing them in conventional ways, such as pan-fried, grilled, or au gratin, this preparation is for you, so from a simple ingredient, you can enjoy a dish that will fully satisfy your hunger!
I really spent very little time preparing them, so I recommend this recipe for those days when you want to prepare something quick but at the same time delicious.
Since this is a recipe where it can be useful to use your hands (if you want, you can also use various kitchen utensils if you don’t want to get dirty), it can be nice to involve your children and/or grandchildren, so you can spend time together having fun, and they can get closer to the world of cooking! I made these fritters last night for my family, and everyone appreciated them, I’m sure you’ll also be able to win over your guests with this dish!
If you have any tips on how you’ve modified this recipe, let me know through the comments! Goodbye, and I look forward to seeing you soon with another delicious recipe! See you soon!

Steps for Zucchini and Cheese Fritters
This is a recipe you can make any time of the year as zucchini are always available at the market or supermarkets.
Start the preparation of the zucchini fritters and cheese by grating the zucchini with a large-hole grater, salting them lightly and placing them in a colander to drain the water, trying to stir and squeeze them occasionally, then proceed by grating the cheese and finally finely chopping the onion.
In a bowl, place the zucchini, squeezing them again, then add the cheese, onion, slightly beaten eggs, sweet paprika, another pinch of salt and pepper, lemon thyme, or even parsley or oregano, and finally the flour.
Stir everything with a spatula to blend all the ingredients well.
Place a large non-stick pan on the heat with a drizzle of oil, when it’s hot, take a spoonful of the mixture and pour it into the pan, flatten it slightly and let it cook for a few minutes on both sides.
Keep the flame low otherwise the fritters will quickly take on color externally and remain raw inside.
