Ingredients

• 2 medium Zucchini
• 1 large Carrot
• 1 large Red bell pepper
• 2 stalks Scallions
• 2 cloves Garlic
• 1 cup All-purpose flour
• 2 large Eggs
• 1 teaspoon Baking powder
• 1 teaspoon Salt
• 0.5 teaspoon Black pepper
• 0.5 teaspoon Cumin powder
• 0.5 teaspoon Paprika
• 0.25 cup Water
• 0 as needed Oil for frying

Directions

Step 1

Grate the zucchinis and carrot using a box grater. Squeeze out the excess moisture using a clean kitchen towel and place in a large mixing bowl.

Step 2

Finely dice the red bell pepper and chop the scallions. Mince the garlic cloves. Add these vegetables to the mixing bowl with the grated zucchini and carrot.

Step 3

In a separate bowl, whisk together the all-purpose flour, eggs, baking powder, salt, black pepper, cumin powder, and paprika. Gradually add water to form a smooth batter.

Step 4

Pour the batter over the vegetables in the mixing bowl and gently fold everything together until the vegetables are evenly coated.

Step 5

Heat about 1/4 inch of oil in a large skillet over medium heat. Once the oil is hot, drop spoonfuls of the vegetable batter into the skillet, flattening each slightly with the back of a spoon.

Step 6

Fry the fritters for about 3-4 minutes on each side or until golden brown and cooked through. Avoid overcrowding the skillet and work in batches if necessary.

Step 7

Use a slotted spoon to transfer the cooked fritters to a plate lined with paper towels to remove excess oil.

Step 8

Serve the fritters warm, perhaps with a side of herb yogurt or other preferred dipping sauce.
