Zucchini...Use It or Lose It

After Charleston and Savannah, I swore I'd never eat again.  I lied.  Today I had two fairly small pathetic-looking Zucchini (es?) (Courgettes to you over the pond) and one small yellow crooked neck squash ready to be used or tossed,  I do not throw out food.  What to do?? 

Zucchini Fritters

1 or 2 or 3 Smallish Zucchini or a mixture of Zucchini and Yellow Squash shredded on large holes of box grater or in food processor

1 jumbo or large egg

2 Tablespoons Cornstarch

1/3 Cup flour

salt and pepper

3 Spring onions diced

Place shredded Zucchini in large bowl.  Sprinkle with salt.  Let sit 10 minutes.   Blot with paper towels until dry.

Combine all ingredients.  Drop by spoonful into hot oil and flatten like pancake.

Turn once when bottom is browned

Drain on paper towel

Serve with sour cream and more onions

Topping

Sour Cream

Sliced Spring Onions

That looks like a really nice lunch Dana. Courgettes are more common than squash up here but I will give the recipe a try when I can get some

You talk about losing weight, would think almost an impossibility with that sort of cooking. sounded superb. Jill
