Instructions
-
Prep the Squash
Grate the squash and squeeze out as much liquid as possible using a clean kitchen towel or cheesecloth. -
Make the Batter
In a large bowl, whisk together the eggs, salt, pepper, olive oil, Parmesan cheese, water, and flour until well combined. -
Add the Squash
Stir the grated squash into the batter until evenly mixed. -
Add Baking Powder
Sprinkle in the baking powder and stir until the batter is thick and cohesive. -
Fry the Fritters
Heat vegetable oil in a pan over medium heat. Drop spoonfuls of batter into the hot oil and fry for about 5 minutes, turning occasionally, until golden brown and crispy. -
Serve
Remove the fritters and drain on paper towels. Serve hot—ideally with a dipping sauce or a dollop of sour cream!
