Zucchini Fritters with Goat Cheese

1. 1

   Coarsely grate the zucchini and then sprinkle with salt.

2. 2

   Try to remove as much moisture from the zucchini as possible.

3. 3

   I squeezed the zucchini with a clean dish towel, and then set it in a colander lined with paper towels for 10 minutes after that.

4. 4

   In a separate bowl, whisk the egg and then add the zucchini, flour, scallions, and some fresh cracked pepper.

5. 5

   Crumble in the goat cheese, and mix well to combine.

6. 6

   Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium heat.

7. 7

   Cook the fritters in batches by spooning the mixture into the skillet in amounts measuring roughly 2 tablespoons.

8. 8

   Flatten the mounds slightly with your spatula once theyre in the pan.

9. 9

   Cook, turning once, until browned, 4 to 6 minutes on each side or until they have become dark brown and crispy.

10. 10

    Transfer to a paper towel-lined plate.
