Authentic Italian Zucchini Fritters Recipe

Ingredients

• 6 eggs eggs
• 3 zucchinis, shredded
• 1 zucchini, diced
• 0.25 cup chopped fresh basil
• 3 tablespoons grated Parmesan cheese
• 1 teaspoon salt
• 0.5 teaspoon ground black pepper
• 1.5 cups all-purpose flour
• 2 cups vegetable oil for frying

Instructions

1. In a large bowl, whisk the eggs until smooth. Add the shredded and diced zucchini, ensuring it's well combined. Incorporate the basil, Parmesan cheese, salt, and pepper. Gradually add the flour, mixing thoroughly after each addition to avoid any lumps.
2. Heat the oil in a large skillet to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C) for frying.
