Zucchini fritters

Zucchini fritters

Ingredients
2 cups coarsely grated Zucchini 
sea salt
1/2 cup finely chopped onion
1/2 cup finely chopped parsley
2 large eggs
1/2 cup self-raising flour
1/4 cup olive oil, for frying

Method
Place the grated Zucchini in a colander, sprinkle ½ t salt over them and leave for 30 minutes to drain. Gently squeeze out any excess liquid before placing the Zucchini in a mixing bowl.
Add the onion and parsley, and a little more salt, if necessary. Break the eggs into a separate bowl and beat lightly with a fork. Stir the eggs into the marrow mixture, then sieve the self-raising flour over the mixture and stir in to form a soft batter – it should drop easily off a spoon.
Heat the olive oil in a frying pan and use a large spoon to drop four roughly-shaped fritters into the pan. Fry until golden, then flip and repeat. Remove from the oil using a slotted spoon and drain on absorbent paper.
If necessary, add more oil to the pan, and repeat with the next batch of fritters. Continue in this way until all the batter is finished. Serve immediately.
