Grate 2 large zucchini into a bowl 2 cloves thinly sliced garlic, 1/2 cup thinly sliced scallions, and 8 oz fresh mozzarella cut into 1/4 cubes. Stir to mix well.
Add 1 T freshly ground pepper and 1 tsp kosher salt, zest of 2 lemons, 3 large eggs (beaten) and stir to combine.
Add 1/4 cup self-rising flour and stir gently til barely mixed.
In a large skillet heat 1/4 cup olive oil just under the smoking point, and drop in dollops of the mixture gently into the hot oil (don't crowd the pan.)
Cook about 2 min on each side, until golden brown. Drain on paper towels.
Serve with lemon wedges.
(Be sure to squeeze the lemon over the fritters - as that adds just ther right flavor!)
I want to try the zucchini fritters. They sound really tasty!
