Ingredients

  • 3 oz shredded potato
  • 6 oz shredded zucchini
  • 1 egg
  • 2 tbsp wholegrain flour
  • ½ medium white onion
  • ½ tsp garlic powder
  • ¼ tsp salt

Instructions

  • In a large mixing bowl whisk the egg, garlic powder, salt and black pepper. 
  • Wash the zucchini, dry and and grate it. The grating can either be done with a box grater or I do it with the grater attachment in my food processor. Take a cheese cloth or a clean dish towel and place the grated zucchini in it. Wring and squeeze it until you get all the excess moisture out.
  • Place the grated zucchini in the large bowl. 
  • Grate the potato the same way you did the zucchini and add the grated potato to the large bowl with the rest of the ingredients.
  • Add flour and chopped onions to the bowl and mix until you have a moldable batter.
  • Heat avocado oil or olive oil over high heat in a frying pan.
  • Take a tablespoon of the fritter batter and make a potato pattie by making a ball and then pressing on both sides. Once the oil is hot turn to medium heat and place the fritters in the pan. 
  • Fry each side for about 3-4 minutes until they turn golden brown and you have crispy potato fritters.
