These fritters are best served immediately while crispy.
If needed, keep warm in a low oven before serving.
Store leftovers in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 2 days. Reheat in a skillet or oven to maintain crispness.
Variations:
Add finely chopped fresh herbs like parsley or mint for a fresh twist.
Substitute haloumi with feta for a creamier texture.
Mix in some grated carrot or corn kernels for extra color and sweetness.
Use chickpea flour instead of regular flour for a gluten-free option.
FAQ:
Can I prepare the batter in advance?
Yes, you can prepare the mixture and refrigerate for a few hours before cooking, but squeeze out excess zucchini moisture just before mixing.
What if I don’t have haloumi?
Feta or ricotta cheese can be used as alternatives, though texture and flavor will vary.
How can I make them less oily?
Use a non-stick pan and moderate the amount of oil. Drain fritters well on paper towels after frying.
Are these fritters suitable for freezing?
You can freeze cooked fritters in a sealed container for up to one month. Reheat in the oven or toaster oven to restore crispness.
