About Zucchini ball

Zucchini Balls are a nutritious and flavorful dish often found in Mediterranean and Middle Eastern cuisines. Made primarily from grated zucchini, these bite-sized creations are typically mixed with breadcrumbs, eggs, herbs, and spices, with variations that include feta cheese or other flavorful additions. Packed with vitamins like Vitamin A, C, and K, zucchini serves as a low-calorie, fiber-rich base, promoting digestion and supporting overall health. While they are usually baked or lightly pan-fried, some recipes call for deep frying, which increases calorie and fat content. Zucchini Balls are a versatile option, often enjoyed as appetizers, snacks, or side dishes. Their high water content helps with hydration, and antioxidants in the zucchini contribute to better skin and immune function. For a healthier version, opt for baking instead of frying and pair with a yogurt-based dip for added protein and probiotics.
