Preparation of the Recipe
- Prepare the Zucchinis:
- Peel the zucchini (optional). Before grating, sprinkle some salt on the zucchini to remove excess water and let it sit for 10 minutes. This will help the zucchini release its water. Then, grate the zucchini and set aside.
- Prepare the Mixture:
- In a bowl, combine the grated zucchini, eggs, flour, parmesan cheese (if using), olive oil, salt, pepper, and baking powder. Mix all ingredients well until smooth.
- Prepare the Baking Sheet:
- Grease the baking tray or line it with baking paper. Spread the zucchini mixture evenly on the tray.
- Bake in the Oven:
- Bake in a preheated oven at 180 ° C for approximately 25-30 minutes. The fritters are cooked when they are golden brown on top and crispy around the edges.
- Serve:
- Slice your zucchini fritters out of the oven and place them on a serving plate. If you like, you can garnish them with fresh mint or parsley. If you like, you can serve them with yoghurt.
