Whip up elegant zucchini fritters with prosciutto and bocconcini for a quick gourmet meal.
Ingredients:
  • 4 zucchinis, grated, squeezed to remove excess liquid
  • 62.50 ml chopped flat-leaf parsley, plus extra leaves to serve
  • 1 egg, lightly beaten
  • 75g self-raising flour
  • 40g parmesan
  • 150g ricotta
  • Pinch of nutmeg
  • 80ml olive oil
  • 8 thin slices prosciutto, torn
  • 2 x 125g balls bocconcini, roughly torn
  • 2 vine-ripened tomatoes, chopped
  • 1/2 red onion, halved, thinly sliced
  • 1 lemon, cut into wedges
Instructions:
  • Combine the zucchini, parsley, egg, flour, parmesan, ricotta, and nutmeg in a bowl. Season well and gently fold everything together until fully mixed.
  • In a large frypan over medium heat, heat 2 tbs oil. Scoop 2 tbs of batter for each fritter into the frypan in 3 batches. Cook for 2 minutes on each side until golden and cooked. Drain on paper towel. Keep warm and repeat with remaining batter using 1 tbs oil for each batch.
  • Assemble fritters on a platter with prosciutto, bocconcini, tomato, onion, and parsley leaves. Season with salt flakes, drizzle with oil, and serve with lemon wedges.
