We found a nice appetizer recipe (similar in appearance to buchimgae, Korean pancakes) in a Martha Stewart magazine "Living" that made for a light, healthy snack in between meals today. The family enjoyed it more with the interesting sauce combination of plain yogurt and apricot jam (which turned out looking like a poached egg). Read more I wanted to try different variations, but the first batch came out so good that I didn't bother (I was thinking carrots and tofu). And since this is a vegetarian dish, we could only think of Komobu and how much he might enjoy this. See less

How to make it
- Directions:
- Using the large holes of a box grater, grate zucchini into a medium bowl. Add the salt, lemon zest, chopped parsley, garlic, pepper, and eggs. Mix well to combine. Slowly add flour, stirring so no lumps form.
- Heat 2 tablespoons olive oil in a large saute pan over medium-high heat until the oil sizzles when you drop a small amount of zucchini mixture into the pan. Carefully drop about 2 tablespoons zucchini mixture into pan; repeat, spacing fritters a few inches apart.
- Cook fritters until golden, 2 to 3 minutes. Lower heat to medium. Turn fritters, and continue cooking until golden, 2 to 3 minutes more. Transfer fritters to a plate; set aside in a warm place. Cook remaining zucchini mixture, adding more oil to pan if necessary. Garnish with parsley sprigs and lemon wedges, if desired; serve.
