For a quick and easy midweek dinner, you can't beat our Thermomix Zucchini Fritters! Ready in just 15 minutes, these are sure to be a hit with the whole family.
When it comes to cooking dinner during the week, I aim for fast, yummy and easy. And these Thermomix Zucchini Fritters are certainly all of those things! You can serve them on their own, with a side salad, with some sour cream and sweet chilli sauce... whatever you like!
One little tip is to pop your cooked fritters into a warm oven (or your ThermoServer) while you cook the remaining fritters. That way they'll still deliciously hot. YUM!
These also make a great alternative to a sandwich in a school lunchbox (or lunch leftovers for yourself!!).

Thermomix Zucchini Fritters
Ingredients

- 70 g self raising flour
- 1 egg
- salt and pepper, to season
- olive oil, for frying
Instructions
- Place the parmesan cheese into the Thermomix bowl and grate on Speed 10, 8 seconds. Set aside.

- Place cooked fritters into a warm oven or ThermoServer while you cook the remaining ones.

The addition of Parmesan is brilliant. It adds mouth feel flavor rather than cheesiness. Of course, if you like cheesiness you could add grated cheddar.
But one quibble: surely squeezing the grated zucchini in a bit bag would remove more liquid? I’d add a bit more zucchini to keep the ratio of zucchini to egg.

Jacqui says
Do you think these will work without the Parmesan?
Lauren Matheson says
Hi Jacqui, yes the would definitely still work 🙂
Ali says
Could I make these the night before and reheat them for breakfast? Or will they turn to mush?
Lucy Mathieson says
You can definitely reheat them! They're also great for school lunch boxes!
