2 large eggs, lightly beaten
2 cloves garlic, minced
2/3 c. all-purpose flour
1/3 c. sliced scallions (green and white parts)
Sour cream or yoghurt, for serving
2 c. shredded zucchini

How to make Quick and Crispy Vegetable Fritters
Step 1: In a colander, place the shredded zucchini and lightly sprinkle with salt. Set aside for 10 minutes. Then, squeeze out as much liquid as possible from the zucchini using your hands.
Step 2: In a large bowl, place the zucchini, carrots, garlic, flour, eggs, scallions, ¼ tsp salt, and ⅛ tsp pepper. Mix well.
Step 3: With paper towels, line a plate.
Step 4: Heat the olive oil in a large saute pan over medium-high heat. Scoop 3 tbsp mounds of the veggie mixture into the pan once the oil is shimmering. Slightly flatten the mounds and keep them about 1-inch apart from each other. Cook for about 2 to 3 minutes. Flip the fritters and cook the other side for 1 to 2 minutes more or until crispy and golden brown.
Step 5: To the paper towel-lined plate, transfer the fritters and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Cook the rest of the veggie mixture.
Step 6: Enjoy the fritters right away topped with yoghurt or sour cream
