Preparation of Ingredients

Start by grating the zucchini. Using a clean cloth or paper towel, squeeze out as much liquid from the grated zucchini as possible. Finely chop the onion.

Making the Batter

In a large bowl, combine the grated zucchini, finely chopped onion, eggs, flour, baking powder, salt, and black pepper. Stir the mixture until well combined and it forms a batter-like consistency.

Frying the Fritters

Heat cooking oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Once the oil is hot, spoon portions of the batter into the skillet. Flatten them slightly with the back of the spoon to form fritters. Cook until golden brown on both sides, approximately 2-3 minutes per side. Transfer the fritters to a plate lined with paper towels to drain any excess oil.

Serving

Serve the zucchini fritters hot, topped with a dollop of sour cream. Optionally, garnish with fresh herbs such as dill or parsley for an added touch of flavor.
