Preparation
- Prepare the Vegetables: Shred the zucchini and place it in a colander. Sprinkle with a little salt and let it sit for about 10 minutes to draw out excess moisture.
- After 10 minutes, use a clean cloth or paper towel to squeeze out as much moisture from the zucchini as possible.
- Finely chop the Bulgarian peppers and mince the garlic cloves. Chop the fresh parsley.
- Mix the Ingredients: In a large mixing bowl, combine the shredded zucchini, chopped peppers, minced garlic, and fresh parsley.
- Crack the eggs into the bowl and mix well. Season with black pepper to taste.
- Add the flour to the mixture and stir until everything is well combined. The flour helps bind the ingredients and gives the fritters their structure.
- Fry the Fritters: Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium heat. You want enough oil to coat the bottom of the skillet.
- Once the oil is hot, spoon dollops of the mixture into the skillet, flattening them slightly to form fritters.
- Fry the fritters for about 3-4 minutes on each side, or until they are golden brown and crispy. Be sure not to overcrowd the skillet; cook in batches if necessary.
- Drain and Serve: Remove the cooked fritters from the skillet and place them on a paper towel-lined plate to drain excess oil.
- Serve warm, garnished with additional fresh parsley if desired.
