  1. Step 1:

    Step 1.

    How to make squash fritters in a frying pan? Prepare the products. The most delicious pancakes are obtained from young zucchini. But if they are not very young, it's not scary, everything will work out anyway!

  2. Step 2:

    Step 2.

    Prepare the zucchini. First they need to be washed well and wiped dry. Since I have young zucchini, I just cut off the tips and cut out the dark spots on the skin. If the squash is old, then it is necessary to clean it from the thick skin and remove the seeds from it.

  3. Step 3:

    Step 3.

    Grate the squash on a coarse grater. Squeeze the resulting mass right with your hands properly. If the juice is released, then drain it. I came across some dry zucchini, there was no juice.

  4. Step 4:

    Step 4.

    Add egg and salt to the zucchini, mix. In portions, start pouring flour, stirring it immediately so that flour lumps do not form. You can increase the amount of flour, depending on what kind of dough you will get. If the zucchini is very watery, then put more.

  5. Step 5:

    Step 5.

    Heat the frying pan and pour oil on it. I have a non-stick frying pan, I just lubricate it with a small amount. Lay out the dough in small portions. It is not necessary to make pancakes very thick, they may not be baked.

  6. Step 6:

    Step 6.

    Fry on one side until golden brown, turn over. Fry on the other side until tender. If the pancakes will be difficult to turn over, then add more flour to the dough. I advise you to try to fry a couple of pancakes first to adjust the consistency of the dough.

  7. Step 7:

    Step 7.

    Serve zucchini pancakes immediately, with sour cream or yogurt. Bon appetit!

If the zucchini is grated on a fine grater, the pancakes will turn out even more tender.
To taste, you can add grated onions or garlic to them. It will also be interesting if you grate potatoes or carrots together with zucchini.
Often grated cheese and chopped greens are added to the dough for pancakes.
There are also sweet recipes - with raisins and apple.
You can knead the dough on kefir, then the pancakes will turn out lush and more familiar, this option will appeal to children. .

Which zucchini will suit best? Choose young fruits with tender skins. Wash them and peel them. It is not necessary to cut off a very thin skin. If you use more mature zucchini, cut off the rough peel and cut out the middle with the seeds.

Be prepared for the fact that flour may need more or less than indicated in the recipe. Focus not on the amount of flour, but on the desired consistency of the dough. To avoid mistakes, read about flour and its properties!
