Romanian Zucchini & Cheese Fritters
  1. Peel the zucchini and remove the seeds if using a large one. Grate the zucchini, sprinkle lightly with salt, and let it sit for 10 minutes.

  2. Squeeze out as much liquid as possible and transfer the grated zucchini to a large bowl.

  3. Add the crumbled telemea cheese(or feta), flour, garlic, eggs, chopped parsley, and black pepper. Since the zucchini has been salted and telemea is naturally salty, no additional salt is usually needed.

  4. Mix everything together until well combined.

  5. Heat some vegetable oil in a skillet over medium heat. Drop spoonfuls of the mixture into the hot oil and gently flatten them.

  6. Fry for 3–4 minutes per side, or until golden brown and crispy.

  7. Transfer the fritters to a paper towel-lined plate to drain any excess oil before serving.
