ZUCCHINI AND SUMAC FRITTERS WITH TOMATO AND MINT SALSA



Zucchini and Sumac Fritters With Tomato and Mint Salsa image

These fritters could be served as appetizers, as a side dish or as one of several vegetarian dishes. It's the closest recipe I've found for some delicious zucchini fritters I ate and loved some years ago, though I'm pretty sure that they didn't have sumac in them, and sumac adds a lot of flavour. When I inquired after the recipe at the time, the Greek woman who'd made them she named the key ingredients but was very dismissive of them. I felt as if to her it was if I'd asked how to make something as simple as say a basic bread and butter sandwich with a slice of cheese in it! This recipe is from the Australian Women's Weekly's 'fresh food fast: delicious no fuss healthy recipes'. Australian brown onions are what Americans call yellow onions. Sumac, if you've not used it is defined (in the same recipe book) as "a purple-red astringent spice ground from berries that grow on shrubs that flourish wild around the Mediterranean; has a tart, lemony flavour. Found in Middle-Eastern food stores. Substitute: 1/8 teaspoon five-spice plus 1/2 teaspoon lemon pepper plus 1/8 teaspoon all spice equals 3/4 teaspoon sumac". I've found that I can purchase it readily from more upmarket supermarkets and European delicatessens.

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 ½ pounds zucchini, grated
1 teaspoon salt
¼ cup all-purpose flour
¼ cup grated Parmesan cheese
1 large egg, beaten
2 cloves garlic, minced
kosher salt and ground black pepper to taste
2 tablespoons olive oil

Steps:

  • Toss zucchini and salt together in a large colander and place in sink to drain for 10 minutes.
  • Put zucchini in the middle of a piece of cheesecloth; wrap cheesecloth around zucchini and squeeze to drain as much moisture from zucchini as possible.
  • Mix flour, Parmesan cheese, egg, garlic, kosher salt, and pepper together in a large bowl. Stir in zucchini.

  • Scoop batter by the tablespoon into the hot skillet and fry until golden brown, about 2 minutes per side.

Tips:

  • Use a large, heavy skillet to cook the fritters. This will help prevent them from sticking and will also allow you to cook more fritters at once.
  • Be careful not to overcrowd the skillet when cooking the fritters. This will also cause them to stick and will not allow them to cook evenly.
  • Cook the fritters over medium heat. This will help prevent them from burning.
  • Flip the fritters carefully when they are golden brown on the bottom. This will prevent them from breaking.
  • Serve the fritters with the tomato and mint salsa. The salsa will add a delicious flavor and freshness to the fritters.

Conclusion:

These zucchini and sumac fritters are a delicious and easy-to-make appetizer or snack. They are perfect for summer when zucchini is in season. The fritters are crispy on the outside and tender on the inside, and the tomato and mint salsa is a refreshing and flavorful complement.
