About Zucchini croquettes

Zucchini croquettes are a delightful dish rooted in Mediterranean and European cuisines, offering a crispy exterior and a soft, savory interior. Made primarily from grated zucchini, these croquettes are often combined with breadcrumbs, eggs, herbs like parsley and dill, garlic, and cheese to enhance flavor. Some variations incorporate onions, spices, or a touch of flour for added texture. Packed with essential nutrients, zucchini is low in calories, rich in vitamins A and C, and provides a healthy dose of antioxidants and fiber. While zucchini itself is a nutritious ingredient, croquettes are typically pan-fried or deep-fried, which can increase fat content depending on cooking methods and oil choice. Opting for baking or air-frying can significantly reduce unhealthy fats while preserving their delicious taste. Perfect as a snack or side dish, zucchini croquettes offer a balanced combination of flavor, texture, and a touch of wholesome goodness.
