Equipment

  • frying pan , handheld cheese graters or food processor

Method
 

  1. Instructions:
  2. Wash, dry and shred the fresh zucchini. You can use a food processor. I used handheld cheese grater.
  3. Place the shredded zucchini into a large bowl and with a paper towel or a thin kitchen towel and squeeze as much water out as you can.
  4. In a large bowl combine the zucchini, the spices, flour, minced garlic, salt, onions, baking powder, parmesan cheese, breadcrumbs, parsley and the egg and milk beaten together. 
  5. dredge the zucchini Parmesan croquettes in bread crumbs. Turn to coat all sides well, pressing gently with your hands until the bread crumbs adhere. 
  6. Heat a frying pan over medium heat, add canola oil. Fry the zucchini parmesan croquettes in batches until they’re golden brown. Don’t overcrowd the pan. Just make sure there’s a little bit of room around each zucchini parmesan croquettes so they can crisp properly.  About 3 minutes or so.
  7. Enjoy!!!!
